Santa and Scrooge Visit Tredegar House
Two very different characters will be visiting Tredegar House this Christmas...
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Santa Claus will be roaming the grounds, spreading Christmas cheer and joy ahead of the big day. Keep your eyes peeled - you never know when you might spot him waving, laughing and sharing a touch of Christmas magic.
Scrooge, on the other hand, will be inside the house - trying his best to avoid all that festive spirit. Will you catch him grumbling in the corners or sneaking away from the Christmas cheer?
Normal admission charges apply and appearances are on select days only (from 1pm - 7pm). Be sure to check the schedule carefully before visiting to avoid disappointment.
Come along for a festive experience full of cheer, chuckles and a dash of magical Christmas mischief.
