Sundown and Santa

Walking into Sundown

Sundown and Santa

December 7, 2021 2021, Events

We’ve been coming to Sundown Adventureland for 8 years now. Every year (with the exception of 2020 which is best left unsaid!), we have organised a trip to see Santa at Sundown. To many of our families, myself included, it is now the official start of Christmas and a family tradition.

If you have never been, Sundown in a theme park designed for under 10’s. It is especially fun at Christmas time when it is decorated into a magical wonderland. As the evenings draw in, the market square will come alive with hundreds of twinkling lights and decorations. The shop is full of goodies, (forget those diets it’s Christmas) stocking fillers, small toys, the full range of cherished teddies, piggin’ pigs and snow babies, as well as a large selection of collectors teddy bears and fabulous collectors dolls, Christmas decorations, Santa’s reindeer and lots, lots more.

Everyone who attended was able to also see Santa, and were treated to a ride through a magical and winter world of fairy tale characters such as the Snow Queen, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland and many others before being greeted by Rudy and Judy the reindeers. Then it’s off to see Santa and to tell him what we really, really wanted for Christmas. My youngest was so shy and overwhelmed at this point, but Santa is a pro. He knew just what to say and do and we managed to get a lovely family photo at the end.

Then it was time to explore and ride as well as sneak into the warmth every so often to the soft play areas and allow the children to burn off their energy while the adults had a hot chocolate.

After missing last year, it was exactly what we needed. We stayed until it was dark and the decorations and lights were so christmassy it was magical.

What the families say:

“Thank you so much. Our first trip to Sundown and what an amazing day we had.”

“Was a lovely long day. Boys did well in some parts that were way to much for them. But it was lovely to see Santa thank you“

“Thanks for today guys we had an amazing time!!! So good to be back merry Christmas everyone.”

“Thank you Little Hiccups for the annual pilgrimage to sundown great day enjoyed by all.”

“Thank you so much”

“Great time had by all even Mimosa the dog had fun lots of lovely tickles”

“Thank you Little Hiccups for today might nor of seen many people but we all had a great time thank you all.”

 “Thank you for a lovely day. Sorry we only got to see a few of you.”
