Dreamland has partnered with local organisation, Hornby Hobbies this Christmas, in their sponsorship of the Toy Workshop Experience within Father Christmas’ Grotto. When the Grotto is open, the Toy Workshop Experience magically transforms into the Elf Department of Hornby Hobbies, where children will enter a wonderful world of activities, fun and games, as well as helping the elves as they busy themselves making toys for the big day. After spending time with the elves, children will get a visit from the big man himself, but will they be on the naughty or nice list this year? Each visit is scheduled to last around 30 minutes and each child will leave with a special Christmas gift. Situated under Dreamland’s Grade II* Listed, Scenic Railway, Father Christmas’ Grotto and Toy Workshop is the perfect location for the Elf Department of Hornby Hobbies and in addition to this, guests in Dreamland will also be able to go to the Education Centre opposite the Grotto to further explore the many Hornby Hobby products in the Hornby Hobbies Activity Centre. This area will be filled with Scalextric, Airfix, Corgi toys and much more, making this is an interactive and enchanting experience. Standard entry for the Grotto is £9.95, but Members can book for only £7.95. Christmas Trees and Gifts at Dreamland From 28th to 29th November, you can purchase your Christmas tree at Dreamland.
