Father Christmas at Leeds Castle

21 Nov - 24 Dec 26

Event Information

Your magical audience with Father Christmas at Leeds Castle awaits!

This Christmas, there’s a little problem at Leeds Castle… Father Christmas has forgotten who he is!

After a rather unfortunate mishap testing out his brand-new Santa Jet Pack, Father Christmas has bumped his head and lost his memory. He can’t remember who he is, or why everyone seems to think Christmas is such a big deal! Thankfully, his three trusty elves, Perky Treacle Pot, Figgy Jingle Berry and Ellie Pickle Pants, are determined to put things right, but they can’t do it without the children’s help.

Families will join Father Christmas and his elves on a heart-warming and wonderfully silly adventure to help him remember who he really is and restore the magic of Christmas, with captivating performances from Hoopstar Theatrical, a heartwarming holiday finale, to meet Father Christmas himself.

Please Note

The Father Christmas experience is a separate ticketed event. Entry to Leeds Castle is required but not included with your Father Christmas ticket.
