Running from Saturday every day until Christmas Eve, organisers have already seen high public demand for tickets to the experience that must be pre-booked through Snow Factor.
On Friday 30th November at 11am, Santa and the Snow will also feature a ‘quiet’ session reserved exclusively to accommodate children with sensory needs. The final two daily experiences of Santa and the Snow will be twilight sessions, with the children read a bedtime story by Santa.
All of the festive fun starts this Saturday within the main concourse in Soar at intu Braehead. Tickets cost £19.95 per child (ages 3-16) and £9.95 (for infants aged 2 or under and for each accompanying adult. Babies under 1 go free). Families can also pre-book to reserve the hugely popular Dine with Santa experience that opens within Snow Factor on 24th November.
Jamie Smith, owner of Snow Factor, Scotland’s only year-round indoor snow-sports facility, said: “Demand for tickets is already high as Santa and his elves make their final preparations for opening their door this Saturday to share the all fun and excitement of Santa and the Snow.
“For what should be a fun-filled time of year for all children, the wee one’s will love taking the Elf Oath, meeting Santa and playing in real snow. Snow Factor and Soar at Intu Braehead look forward to welcoming everyone for some truly magical pre-Christmas fun.”
