Quick Actions

Tips & Advice

  • Arrive at least 30 minutes before your Santa's Grotto time slot to allow for parking, registration, and enjoying other attractions.
  • Dress warmly in layers, as while most activities are indoors, there is walking between areas and the Jungle Express ride can be cold.
  • Consider purchasing extra activity tokens if your children are aged 9+ or if they want to experience more than the included one or two.
  • Book tickets online in advance, as spaces are limited and the event is essential to book.
  • Take advantage of the picnic areas for your own food, but note that outside food is not permitted in indoor dining areas.
