Teepees return to Ilkley Rugby Club for Christmas

Festive drinks, delicious street food and a cosy Christmas atmosphere are heading back to Ilkley this December as BAR Events UK brings its popular Christmas Teepees to Ilkley Rugby Club.

The giant Nordic teepees will bring a welcoming festive destination to Ilkley, offering a cosy spot for friends, families and colleagues to get together in the run-up to Christmas.

Opening on Thursday 3 December 2026, the Christmas Teepees will welcome visitors every Thursday to Sunday in the lead-up to Christmas, providing the perfect setting for festive catch-ups, after-work drinks, family outings and Christmas celebrations.

Inside the beautifully decorated teepees, guests can expect twinkling fairy lights, a warm and welcoming atmosphere, a fully stocked festive bar and delicious seasonal street food.

The event is organised by Yorkshire-based BAR Events UK, a family-run business with more than 11 years of experience creating memorable events across the region.

Dan Lakin, M.D. of BAR Events UK said: "There's something really special about our Christmas Teepees. We love creating a space where people can escape the Christmas shopping, catch up with friends and family, and enjoy a drink and some fantastic food in a lovely festive atmosphere.

"Ilkley has such a wonderful community spirit, particularly at Christmas, and we're delighted to be bringing the teepees back to Ilkley Rugby Club. Whether you're planning a Christmas get-together or simply fancy popping in for a festive drink, everyone is welcome."

Visitors can enjoy festive street food and drinks in a relaxed setting, with the teepees perfect for casual drinks, Christmas celebrations and group dining bookings on Thursdays and Fridays. Call 07835 893295 to book or for enquiries.
