About

Father Christmas is making a special stop at No.1 Royal Crescent this year, he's keen to experience the '12 Tales of a Georgian Christmas' tour!
While he is here, he would like to read a Christmas story to the children and of course give them a gift too! 

The children will be greeted by Christmas helpers and led in to our beautifully decorated Servants Hall where Father Christmas will read them a story. They will have a chance to talk to him, have a photo with him and there is a special post box if your child would like to leave a letter for him.

Each child will be given a gift and a Georgian Christmas Cookie recipe card to take home, we'd love to see pictures of the baking creations so please post these to our social media with the hashtag #no1royalcrescent.

We welcome up to 12 children in each visit and we ask that where possible, one adult accompanies each child due to space restrictions.

Adults will be asked to stand at the back of the room or kneel next to their child if needed.

Each session will last around 30 minutes.

Please Note: 

Once booked, please email names of any children attending to no1royalcrescent.org.uk so they can be added to the good list!

Your Father Christmas Grotto ticket does not grant you access to the Museum. Museum admission tickets can be purchased via our website.
Entry to see Father Christmas will be down the steps from the Courtyard Door. Accessible entrance is possible, please speak to museum staff on arrival.

Staff sickness may mean the event has to be cancelled or revised at short notice. We will endeavor to give visitors as much notice as possible in the unlikely event that this should happen.

Adult: £15, children free of charge
