Things to do

Christmas begins at William’s Den this weekend – with festive activities, gingerbread decorating, and a brand new show starring Santa.

The Yorkshire attraction are helping all the family get into the festive spirit this season.

William’s Christmas Experience begins today, Saturday 2 December, at William’s Den.

It will then take place every Saturday and Sunday in December up until Christmas Eve.

For 2023, the festive experience will feature a brand new Christmas Show starring Father Christmas himself. There will be an opportunity for families to meet and greet and get a photo with the jolly man after the show. There will be six show performances each day.

William’s Den will also host a SEND (Special Education Needs & Disability) relaxed performance of its Christmas Show on Saturday 2 December at 2:30pm. It will be the same as other performances but with lower sensory intensity for visitors who would benefit from a more informal environment and are free to move around during the show. The relaxed performance also includes a British Sign Language Interpreter.

As well as the new Christmas show, every child who visits can pick an early Christmas present from the Toy Shop to take home. 

Back by popular demand for 2023, families can join Bauble the French Baker to decorate a festive gingerbread, toast marshmallows around the fire pit, tackle the reindeer quiz trail and enjoy unlimited play inside and outside at William’s Den. 

Tor Carver, who created William’s Den with her husband, Christian, said: “Christmas is all about spending time with loved ones and making precious memories together as a family.

“We’ve put our heart and soul into planning another special Christmas here, creating experiences to remember and making sure there’s so much to do that you can be here all day! We can’t wait for Father Christmas to arrive and to welcome more families this December.”

Tickets for William’s Christmas Experience are £29.95 for children and £19.95 for adults. For more information and to book your tickets, visit the William’s Den website.
