Take a ride on Wicksteed Park Railway boarding at the North Pole station, meet the animals at Wicky’s Farmyard, play a game of crazy golf at Pig ‘N Putt, whizz down the Astroslide and twirl on the Carousel, Cups and Saucers or our Heritage Toy Roundabout to your heart’s content.
Have a Christmas wish? You can also leave your wish on our magnificent Wishing Tree.
NEW FOR 2025 – You can have a go at making your very own reindeer food to leave out on Christmas Eve or decorate a festive biscuit with the Bakery Elf.
Photo mementos from your meet and greet with Santa Claus will be available to purchase from Wicky’s Gift shop. Festive food and refreshments will be available from our Northern Lights Café and Garden Café.
