Pre-book experiences

You can pre book your Santa’s Grotto and face painting at the form at the bottom of this page or by clicking here. When you arrive at the event, please visit the Amaze stall by the bar to exchange for a voucher or show your booking to an elf at our Grotto. There is no need to print your confirmation as people on this stall will have a list of names. Please note that the Grotto will only be open between 12pm and 2.30pm so you must attend during this time.

Access information

The event is open to everyone, but we have designed the event with accessibility in mind. The venue has step-free access to enter/exit and navigate the event (although some exits require using stairs which will be clearly marked). The front door is not power assisted but volunteers will be available to help with doors.

The layout of the event has been designed to ensure there is space to navigate between activities for people with buggies and wheelchairs. We have some stalls in the middle of the room but we expect there to be 2.5 metres of space between stalls that are against the wall and that are in the middle of the room.

The venue has accessible and gender-neutral toilets available. There is a changing places toilet in Friars Walk car park which is approximately 5-minute walk/ 900ft away from the entrance to the venue. To access the changing places toilet, you need to obtain a fob by contacting the council (contact details at the link above).

We anticipate that the event will be loud, so we are hoping to provide a quiet space for people on the day. We have also designated 12pm-1pm as a quiet hour where no performances will take place, and no music will be played.

Performances will have BSL interpretation and a hearing loop will be available.

If you have any questions about event access, please contact us on [email protected].
