Visit Chester

Welcome to Chester

Chester sparkles with a magical heritage all year round and is the perfect place for revitalising breaks at any time. 

Summer is packed with exciting festivals including the historic Midsummer Watch Parade and the Summer Music Festival. As the nights draw in, why not experience the more mysterious side to the city centre and take a night-time journey around the eerie haunts of Chester's past on our Ghosthunter Trail. 

Christmas in Chester is always a must, so many exciting shops and late night thursday's plus the Midwinter Watch Parade, Lantern parades and Christmas lights in the city centre.

Here you'll find information about where to stay, what to do and where to eat.  You can find out about what's on during your visit, book one of our sightseeing tours or plan your day shopping in Chester.  Of course, you can always flick through (or download) the Chester Visitor Guide and see what you're missing!
