Santa's secrets are out at Birdworld's festive extravaganza

A special visitor is heading to Birdworld this December, as he prepares to share some of the incredible secrets behind the magic of Christmas. 

From Saturday 19 to Thursday 24 December, families visiting the UK's largest bird park can join Santa and his trusty elves, Tinsel and Bauble, for laughter, singing and festive surprises in Santa's Magical Christmas Show. 

The interactive spectacular will use Santa's incredible inventions to answer some of Christmas's biggest questions - such as how children's letters reach the North Pole and how he manages to squeeze millions of presents onto one tiny sleigh. 

With a little help from Tinsel, Bauble and the audience, the performances promise plenty of Christmas cheer, with families also having the opportunity to have their photograph taken with Santa after the show. 

Both the show and a special gift for every child are included in Birdworld's usual admission price. 

Woodies Wheeler Bennett, marketing manager at Birdworld, said: "There's something really special about seeing the excitement on children's faces at Christmas, and this year's show is bound to give families a festive experience they'll remember. 

"It's been a fantastic year for Birdworld, with our new indoor and outdoor play areas now in full swing and our programme of seasonal shows helping to spark imaginations and bring families together. We're looking forward to rounding off the year with a little extra Christmas magic! 

"But don't forget, with just six days of performances planned, we'd encourage families to book their visit early to avoid disappointment." 

Santa's Magical Christmas Show will host five performances each day at 11am, 12pm, 1pm, 2.30pm and 3.30pm. Families can choose their preferred showtime on arrival, subject to availability.
