Father Christmas is stopping at Newark Park before he heads off for his busiest night of the year. For those that have been nice, there will be a little gift and a chat with the man himself in his cosy grotto in the Drawing Room on the ground floor of Newark house.
Your family will get a short private session with Father Christmas. Your visit will be within the 30-minute time slot you book so you may have a short wait when you arrive.
If your child has any special requirements that you think we ought to know about, or which might affect your visit to Father Christmas, please get in touch with us and we'll be happy to discuss how we can best facilitate your visit.
Booking is essential. Tickets are £8 per child visiting Father Christmas. Normal admission charges apply in addition to the Father Christmas ticket price.
