About the event

Supper with Santa is a magical event designed to bring joy and festive cheer to families. Join us for a delightful supper where you'll savor a delicious traditional Christmas dinner including Turkey, Gammon and Nut roast, in a warm and welcoming atmosphere with free flowing squash, tea and filter coffee. No Christmas dinner is complete without traditional favourites like Christmas Pudding! Throughout the event, children and adults alike will have the chance to meet Santa Claus, share their holiday wishes, and take memorable photos with him. Each child will also receive a gift from Santa himself!

All children require a ticket regardless of their age. Infants under the age of 12 months will not be charged but won't receive a meal or gift. Should you wish for your infant (under 12 months) to have a meal, see Santa and receive a gift then you should purchase a child's ticket for them.

Please ensure you book a high chair if needed.

Adult tickets do not include a gift.

If you have any specific dietary requirements, please fill out the order form when booking.
Ticket sales will end at 12.00noon the day before the event.
