Time with Santa, at your own pace
Santa and his helpers spend several minutes with every family, so no one feels rushed. Staff keep to the booking times as closely as they can, but expect a short wait for your turn. Every family gets the same unhurried time with Santa.
While you wait
Take in the Christmas area outside the grotto, climb into Santa’s sleigh for a photo, or look round the gift shop and café. If you’ve booked park entry too, staff will call you over the speakers when it’s your turn, so you can carry on exploring.
More to discover at the park
Try the Christmas quiz, catch the daily talks and animal feeds, and warm up with a festive treat at the Otter Pool Café.
Book your visit early to choose your time slot.
