Tips & Advice

- Budget for food and drinks on top of your ticket, since refreshments like mulled wine and s'more toasting aren't included.
- Stay for the whole day, since you go at your own pace and there's time for both shows, gingerbread decorating and the Elf Express.
- Have the children write their letters before you come so they can post them to Santa in the Post Room, or send last-minute requests by Santa Messaging Service.
- Set aside extra money if you want the professional family photograph, which costs extra on top of the Grotto visit.
