With Christmas just around the corner the stars (and HuffPost Celeb) were getting into the festive spirit last night at the launch of Winter Wonderland.

The annual event in London's Hyde Park is a celebration of all things Christmas with ice skating, fun fair rides, a circus and gift stalls on offer.

'X Factor' finalists Union J, James Arthur and Christopher Maloney spent most of the night sampling the scary rides and being chased by fans but there was no sign of Jahmene Douglas. He opted to take his beloved mum along to the Empowering Women Awards instead. Bless!

Also there was Katie Price with her daughter Princess and um, her ex Leandro Penna. Awkward!

The pair managed to avoid each other throughout the night though, with Katie and Princess enjoying the rides while Leo spent most of his time in the VIP area with a group of mates (after a photo opp with Santa, obvs).

But our favourite spots of the night were Rod Stewart and Noel Gallagher who rocked up with their families in tow to enjoy the ice skating and funfair rides.

Rock and roll!
