Barleylands Christmas Experience
Barleylands Christmas Experience – on sale Friday 1st August
Join us for the Barleylands Father Christmas Experience, taking place on selected dates from the 29th November 2025 through to Christmas Eve!
Tickets must be booked in advance and your experience will include…
A friendly elf to greet the whole family, who will see if you are on our naughty or nice list!
Once you have been checked into our Magical Christmas Barn, the elf will take you through to the grotto. Waiting for you will be Father Christmas himself, in his cosy grotto, ready to find out what your heart truly desires this year. His helpful elves can then take your photo with your own phone or camera. Before you leave, Father Christmas will decide if you have been good enough to receive a special token! If you have been a good girl or boy, you will be given a token for the Toy Factory, where you can trade your token for a present of your choice.
Keep hold of your token as before you visit the toy shop, you will be escorted through the Winter Walkway (perfect for photo opportunities) and then on to Mother Christmas.
Whilst with Mother Christmas in her Christmas kitchen, you will be able to make a Christmas decoration and decorate some delicious gingerbread which you can eat or take home.
What does Santa’s reindeer need to fly? Some reindeer magic food of course! Make sure you visit the reindeer food station before leaving the Christmas kitchen (please note, no reindeer will be present).
Lastly, our friendly cheeky elves will escort you to the Toy Workshop, ready for you to choose your toy.
Remember, all tickets include all day access to the Farm Park! No matter what time slot you have been allocated to visit Father Christmas, you can visit the Farm Park at any time from 10am to 4pm on the day of your booking, which means you can enjoy all the usual fun on the farm including meeting and feeding the animals, tractor and trailer rides, indoor soft play, birds of prey displays, animal activities, outdoor adventure play and more!
Please note every booking must have at least one child ticket included. Spectating siblings under the age of 12 months need to purchase a ticket (at £10 each), no gift will be provided for this ticket. If you’d like a gift please purchase a +1 child ticket.
Please arrive at the Farm Park entrance, at least 10 minutes prior to your Christmas Experience time in order to check in with your unique booking reference number, to ensure your swift arrival with the friendly elves at the Christmas barn at your allocated booking time. Your booking time is the time you need to be ready to see Santa, not your arrival time. You can arrive earlier when the farm park opens at 9:30!
Link above will be live from 1st August
