Trafford Centre Grotto: Dear Santa tickets, prices and dates

The immersive wonderland will be open from November 16 to December 24.

Children are invited to a 'top-secret tour' of The North Pole Headquarters, with the help of Santa’s elves.

The adventure includes a trip through Candy Cane Land, The Enchanted Forest, The Merry Makers Studio, Santa’s Study, and a meeting with Santa himself.

This year, the grotto will be located outside The Great Hall, in the former Frankie & Benny’s space.

Tickets are available at thegrotto.co.uk/trafford priced at £25 plus booking fees for children, which includes a gift, and £7.50 plus booking fees for adults.

There will also be 'Whispering Winter' sessions with quieter music, dimmer lights, and fewer visitors.

Simon Layton, centre director at Trafford Centre, said: "At Trafford Centre, we’re all about making memorable moments for our guests, especially at our favourite time of year – Christmas.

"The Grotto was a hugely popular experience last year, with wonderful feedback from families, so we’re delighted to announce its return.

"Tickets are selling fast, so don’t miss your opportunity to sprinkle extra magic on your Christmas festivities this year."
