Father Christmas at Temple Newsam is a fantastic experience for families to enjoy in the run up to the festive season.

This year Father Christmas will be inviting you to tell him your Christmas wishes and give you an early Christmas present to take home.

Babies are welcome too, with our ‘Baby’s first Christmas’ experience offering a shorter visit and baby-friendly gift.

Book your tickets now to secure your spot! Spaces are limited, so don’t wait—make this Christmas one to remember. 

Combine your ticket with a visit to Mrs Claus to make this an extra special experience!

Early bird tickets

Book by the end of October for early bird rates!
