NEW for 2026!
\nAs well as our popular Saturday slots (perfect for families), we're introducing\nextra weekday time slots this year — ideal for SEND teens and adults,\npre-schoolers, or anyone who'd prefer a quieter, more relaxed visit.\n\n

Good to know before you book\n\n

Booking more than one\n child? Please book consecutive time slots (one child per slot) — your\n family will go in to see Father Christmas together.
Please double-check your\n dates and times when booking, as we're unable to make changes once a\n booking is confirmed.
You're welcome to take\n your own photos during your visit.
Tickets are\n non-refundable unless the event is cancelled by the museum.

This event is in partnership with Maidstone Rotary Club\n\n
