✨ Book Tickets Now ✨
Step into a world of festive enchantment as Fairytale Farm is transformed into a glittering wonderland. With twinkling lights, heartwarming stories, and magical encounters around every corner, Christmas Fairytale 2025 will be our most unforgettable celebration yet.
Running weekends from 22 November to 7 December, and daily from 8 December right through to Christmas Eve, this is your chance to make memories that will last a lifetime. Santa’s Grotto is open until 5pm, with special late-night hours until 7pm on select dates.
🌟 Travel Back to Victorian Times

This year’s Christmas Fairytale is inspired by the timeless charm of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Stroll through the cobbled streets of Victorian London, watch the story of Ebenezer Scrooge unfold, and discover new additions such as Tom’s Toy Shop – where every child receives a special Christmas gift.
Alongside these new delights, you’ll also find all your favourite traditions:
- Meeting Father Christmas in his cosy Grotto.
- Wandering through the enchanting Fairytale Castle.
- Gazing at our dazzling Christmas illuminations.
🎅 Your Christmas Journey

Every child receives a special Christmas passport to be stamped by Santa’s helpers at magical stops along the way. Your adventure begins at the Fairytale Castle and carries you across the festive world, from the South Pole to the North.
Highlights include:
- Meet the Penguins – dance, play, and visit the Toymaker’s log cabin.
- Santa’s Grotto – journey through the Secret Forest to meet Father Christmas himself in a warm, personal encounter.
- Victorian Wonderland – explore Dickensian London, collect your gift from Tom’s Toy Shop, and follow Scrooge’s transformation with the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come.
- Mother Goose & Friends – join in the merriment with favourite nursery-rhyme characters.
- Mouse Town – discover a festive twist on our beloved miniature world.
💫 At Fairytale Farm, we believe your time with Santa should never be rushed. Every grotto visit is just for your family, with time for photos, presents, and sharing your Christmas wishes.
