Enchanted Palace
Exhibition
Kensington Palace transforms into a magical multisensory exhibition that combines fantasy, fashion and spectacle in a dazzling show. Each of the State Apartment rooms is filled by a renowned designer or illustrator, who have each created a fantastical display inspired by the royals who once occupied them. Taking inspiration from fairytales and real life stories of royal women, the exhibition invites you in to hear their tales. Using film projections, soundscapes, storytelling and interactive theatre, visitors to Kensington Palace will be whisked off to a fairytale world.
