Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Book tickets in advance, as dates and times sell out quickly and walk-ins are not guaranteed. Reserving online saves time.
- Arrive within your designated time slot, but be prepared for a potential wait as guests are seen on a first-come, first-served basis within that slot.
- Children aged 2 and under enter free with a paying adult, making it a great option for families with very young children.
- While you can take your own photos, an elf or Mrs. Claus will assist with group photos, but cannot provide extra time for posing or perfect shots.
- Consider purchasing the recommended 'Purchase Protection' for a refund if unforeseen circumstances prevent your attendance.
