MORE THAN A VISIT TO SANTA

A WHOLE CHRISTMAS ADVENTURE

Christmas Wonderland at the Jungle

28 Nov – 23 Dec 2026

Step into a world of twinkling lights, festive fun and Christmas magic as Christmas Wonderland returns to The Jungle.

Journey through the enchanted woodland aboard the Jungle Express, meet Santa and his elves, toast marshmallows, enjoy live entertainment and adventure activities, and make Christmas memories together as a family.

THIRTEEN YEARS OF TURNING DECEMBER INTO SOMETHING THE WHOLE FAMILY REMEMBERS.

For more than a decade, families have joined us at The Jungle for Christmas Wonderland. From the woodland lights and Jungle Express to Santa, Mrs Claus, our elves and performers, the whole experience is built around giving families time together and creating Christmas memories.

Step Inside Christmas Wonderland & The Christmas Journey

Christmas Wonderland is more than a quick visit to Santa. Your Santa visit sits at the heart of a much bigger festive experience, with plenty to discover before and after your allocated Grotto time.

Your Christmas Wonderland ticket includes:

Adults £20 | Children £30 | Babies under 12 months £12

Dates & Tickets

Important booking information: the time you select when booking is your Santa Grotto time — not your arrival time. Please arrive onsite at least 20 minutes before your allocated Santa time.

Plan your visit

Most families spend around 2–3 hours at Christmas Wonderland. Your Santa visit takes place at your allocated time, while the other experiences can be enjoyed around it.
A mixture of both. Much of the experience takes place indoors or in sheltered areas, but there are outdoor walks between areas, the Jungle Express journey and the outdoor Stage Show. Wrap up warm and wear suitable footwear.
If you have a later Santa booking, you’re very welcome to arrive earlier and enjoy some of the other Christmas Wonderland experiences before visiting Santa. However, you can only begin your Christmas Wonderland experience once the event has opened on your booked date. Please do not arrive before the opening time shown, as the site and attractions will not yet be open to customers. Whatever time you choose, please be onsite at least 20 minutes before your Santa Grotto slot.
Free parking is available in The Jungle’s main car park. From the car park, follow the marked route over the bridge and through the pedestrian subway. Please do not cross the main road on foot. Limited accessible parking is available onsite.
Buggies and prams are welcome, although some areas have uneven terrain. If you have an accessibility query, give our office team a call and we can provide further information.

Adventure Activities & Optional Extras

Every child receives an Adventure Activity Token as part of their Christmas Wonderland ticket, while children aged 9+ receive two tokens.

Additional tokens are £4 each or 6 for £20. Activities are subject to availability.

Food & Festive Treats

Take a break from the festivities and grab something to eat while you’re here.

The Lazy Llama: Hot sandwiches, loaded fries and festive specials.

The Little Llama: Hot chocolate, coffee, tea, cold drinks, snacks and baked treats.

Sweet Treats: Look out for crêpes, doughnuts and desserts from our onsite food truck.

Make it a Christmas Staycation

Add an overnight stay to your Christmas Wonderland booking and make it a night to remember. What better way to round off an epic Christmas Day Out than a cosy moonlit dip in your own wood-fired hot tub?! Any of our accommodation options can be added to your booking, by simply clicking ‘Add another activity’ after adding your Christmas Wonderland tickets to your basket. Availability is limited and is on a first-come, first served basis. These tend to book up very fast, so book early to avoid disappointment.

Selected Saturday and Sunday sessions are available at 10am or 11am. Call 028 8674 8881 or email bookings@thejungleni.com to enquire.
