Christmas wouldn’t be complete without a visit from Santa Claus himself, joined by beloved Frozen characters Elsa and Anna, brought to life by Demi Leigh Wilson & Team. And don’t miss a chance to meet the adorable Santa Stitch from Big Softies!
Adding to the festive atmosphere, a beautiful carousel will be set up, offering fun for the whole family.
