Weekends in December (excluding bank holidays)
10.20am, 11am, 11.40am, 12.20pm, 1.20pm, 2pm, 2.40pm and 3.20pm
Venue: Bolsover Castle
Join Father Christmas at Bolsover Castle this December for a magical way to start the festive season.
Father Christmas is taking time out of his busy festive schedule to tell some of his favourite seasonal stories around the Christmas tree.
After the group storytelling session, you and your children will meet the man himself, with the chance to take photographs and make memories to treasure. Father Christmas will also give every child a traditional present to unwrap.
Children of all ages are welcome. Tickets for Father Christmas cost £9.50 per child in advance, for members and non-members, and can be added at the checkout. Non-members will also need to purchase a ticket for the castle itself.
Sessions take at place weekends only, at 10.20am, 11am, 11.40am, 12.20pm, 1.20pm, 2pm, 2.40pm and 3.20pm. To make sure there's room for everyone, we ask that only one adult accompany each child. Father Christmas needs to start on time, so please arrive at least 15 minutes before your slot.
