See the jolly elves preparing all the toys, plus children can write their very own letter to Father Christmas before stopping by Cookie Corner where little ones can receive a sweet treat!

Then get ready to boo, cheer and dance along to the classic Christmas panto Jack and the Beanstalk. And get in the festive spirit with live Christmas music from the festive carollers – Jingle Voices.
