Welcome to Winter Wonderland! Fresh footage shows punches thrown, revellers hurled to floor and women screaming as Christmas attraction explodes into violence

Fresh footage shows two rival groups brawling at Winter Wonderland in more shocking scenes. 

The clip shows punches being thrown, bins being overturned and women screaming ‘stop it’ inside the event’s Bavarian Village in London‘s Hyde Park on Christmas Eve.

The fighting started despite several security men in high-visibility jackets trying to stop them from clashing. 

Several men break into fights and the clip also appears to show security guards pushing revellers to the floor. 

Many guests are running out of the way to flee the chaos. Other screams included: ‘Please, no more drama.’ 

At the end of the video, the man recording it – while wearing a cowboy hat – said: ‘Welcome to Winter Wonderland. 

‘This is what happens every single year, people are drunk, can’t handle their drink and this is what happens, look.’ 

On the same evening, police were called and pulled out Tasers during a separate incident.

Video footage from that showed youths fighting with punches, kicks and slaps. At least one person was kicked in the head. 

One onlooker said: ‘It was a night of pure chaos. People go there for a family peaceful night of Christmas entertainment. 

‘But some people go feral and ruin it. Drink plays a big part and it kicked off again.

‘I’ll never go again. It’s not worth it.’

On Christmas Eve, one officer pulled out his Taser, with a youth putting his hands above his head as the situation unfolded. 

Earlier this week saw another vicious brawl involving a group. 

The week before there was another fight which saw a woman punched unconscious. 

Winter Wonderland has been criticised as overcrowded and overpriced, and has been named Europe’s most complained-about festive attraction.

More video footage this week of the same event posted to social media showed the aggressive youths at the event tearing down barriers, punching and grabbing each other. 

Footage showed a group chasing after one boy, flinging themselves over the metal entrance barriers to reach him.  

In a frenzy, the boy fell backwards onto a group of people before being punched to the ground.  

A group of three then corner him and continuously hit him as he tries to flee, while the rest of the gang catch up with them. 

Members of the public, including teenage girls can be seen cowering and grabbing each other in fear. 

Within the space of a few minutes, booming police sirens can be heard – causing some of the thugs to run away. 

Police then arrived with tasers to catch the group and can be heard telling the public to ‘go home’. 

The video was posted on X with people sarcastically praising the ‘festive spirit’ of Winter Wonderland. 

One user commented: ‘Would it be Christmas without a punch up at Winter Wonderland.’ 

Another added: ‘UFC 2025: Winter Wonderland edition’. 

A spokesman for Hyde Park Winter Wonderland said the incident had been ‘managed promptly by on-site security, with police present’. 

‘There was no impact on the wider event and no serious injuries reported,’ they added.
