Experience a magical visit with Santa in the Ulster Folk Museum

About

Come and meet Santa at the most magical time of year before he packs up his sleigh and returns to the North Pole.

Wander around the cobbled streets before and after your visit with Santa, taking in the magic with festive music, scents of cinnamon, seasonal food to taste and exhibit buildings decorated for the season, just as they would have been years ago. Meet our talented craft demonstrators, listen to festive storytelling and make your own Christmas decorations to take home. Don't forget to say hello to the donkeys as well!

Your Santa experience includes a private visit with your group/party and a traditional Christmas gift per child.
