Please choose the day you wish to visit Santa – after selecting a time slot, choose the number of tickets. Santa’s Grotto bookings only need to be made for the children attending and they will receive their skating pass, gift and drinks token on arrival at the venue. Accompanying adults visit the Grotto for free but will need to book skating tickets (unless your child is aged 5 and under and then you get one free pass for an adult instead).
