Festive Fun

With the countdown to Christmas on, we are ready to have some festive fun at Vicar Lane!

 

Visit Santa in his grotto

You’re invited to experience the magic of Christmas with a trip to our cosy grotto to meet Santa!

Santa has travelled all the way over from the North Pole to spread festive cheer at Vicar Lane. For £8.50, every child will be able to meet the big man himself, plus receive a gift and certificate to take home as a momentum of their enchanting experience. Official photos will cost an additional fee.

Vicar Lane will also offer Autism Friendly Santa Experiences (on selected dates and times). This experience aims to support children with autism and sensory conditions to enjoy all of the Christmas magic in a more calming and relaxed environment. These sessions must be booked in advance.

For the dates and times visit here
