How to book Santa's Grotto Each time slot is for a maximum of 4 children. Choose the ticket that matches how many children are visiting Santa: 1 child 2 children 3 children 4 children Adults go in free. You do not need a ticket for adults. More than 4 children? You cannot put more than 4 children on one slot. Book 2 separate tickets (2 different times). Example: 5 children = one 2-child ticket + one 3-child ticket. Under 1s Under 1s go free provided you don’t want them to receive a gift or have time with Santa. If you do want them to receive a gift you need to book a child ticket. Why slots are limited? We understand that visiting Santa is a special part of Christmas for many families. However, it simply isn’t possible to offer the same number of Grotto bookings as the overall capacity of Christmas Kingdom. To protect the quality of the experience, Grotto numbers are deliberately limited. This allows every family enough time with Santa and ensures the experience remains personal, magical and memorable, rather than rushed or overcrowded. Christmas Kingdom has been designed as a complete festive experience, with Santa’s Woodland Grotto being one of several attractions within the Kingdom. Don't clash with the Light Trail The Secret Forest Light Trail takes about 1 hour. Book Santa before your trail starts, or after it finishes - not during. Example: Light Trail at 3:00pm takes until about 4:00pm. Book Santa before 3:00pm, or from 4:00pm onwards. Forest Feast & Family Funfair No time slots. Visit these whenever you like, before or after your other bookings.
