Christmas at Sunnycroft

Friday 5 December to Tuesday 23 December 2025

Father Christmas will be stopping off at Sunnycroft again this year.

Step inside Sunnycroft for a spellbinding Christmas journey where pantos collide, and Father Christmas is waiting just for you.

This 25-minute festive adventure turns Sunnycroft into your own private stage for a Christmas panto mash-up. Armed with Jack’s magic beans, you’ll journey through the house to follow Jack and the Beanstalk, but in true panto style, a few wrong turns could land you in all sorts of other stories. Keep your eyes peeled for a slipper left “behind you,” a mischievous genie ready to grant wishes, or a giant who’s “stomping around the house.” Each twist and turn is packed with panto laughs, surprises, and a few cheeky “Oh no, he didn’t!” moments.

Meeting Father Christmas is the perfect finale to your Sunnycroft adventure. Step into his festive world, share your Christmas wishes, and enjoy a moment of wonder together. And if you happen to bring along Jack’s magic beans, who knows? Father Christmas might have a plan for them.

Father Christmas will be visiting Sunnycroft from Friday 5 December to Tuesday 23 December. 

This event is split into two listings, bookings are available by date: 5-14 December and 17-23 December.

Wednesday 10 December - Friday 19 December 2025

Experience the magic of Christmas at Sunnycroft in a new light!

Go behind the scenes of Sunnycroft’s magical Christmas panto mash-up. With mulled wine in hand and a mince pie to nibble, explore the set, peek into hidden corners, and discover the secrets Sunnycroft’s own team have woven into this festive adventure.

This special behind-the-scenes experience, created by Sunnycroft’s team, takes you beyond the curtain of the Christmas panto mash-up. You’ll wander through the house as it’s transformed into a world where pantos collide, Jack’s magic beans might still be lying around, but without the rush to meet Father Christmas, you can take your time to spot every detail. See the giant’s stomping ground, the slipper left “behind you,” and the genie’s lair, all while sipping mulled wine and enjoying a mince pie. Along the way, you’ll hear how the stories are woven together and what it takes to turn Sunnycroft into a festive stage. It’s a rare chance to savour the magic at a slower pace, with plenty of surprises tucked into every room.
