Plus… SANTA WILL BE HERE!
Come along to see the big man himself and an elf helper or two, for a discussion about how naughty / nice you’ve been this year, pressie requests, snap a festive (s)elfie and receive a gift!
All in the comfort of the snuggliest grotto in town, as decided by us 🎅
You can visit Santa’s Grotto for £6 per child, which includes a gift.
Buy your Grotto ticket at the tills when you arrive.
Please note: Grotto price is in addition to standard admission. All Eureka! visits must be pre-booked.
To avoid disappointment, book your arrival time and grotto tickets before 2pm, as we cannot guarantee you a slot after this time.
Psst! Our Christmas SENDay is a much quieter time to visit the museum (and Santa) compared with our Winter weekends…
What’s relaxed about it?
- Low visitor numbers:
We’ve heavily restricted ticket availability on these days, so our galleries will be much less busy than usual. - Flexible timings:
We want these days to work around you! Which is why – although we do ask you to select an arrival time – we are flexible if you happen to get here a little earlier or later than your slot. - Chill Out Room:
Need some time out away from the main museum? Just ask any of our Enablers (the people in light blue shirts with “Team Eureka!” written on the back) for access to our Chill Out Room. - Ear defenders:
You can borrow a pair of ear defenders for free from our Information Desk (by the admissions tills) – subject to availability, obvs. -
Trained, supportive staff:
Our whole team are trained in disability awareness, and we really want you all to have a great day out. Just ask us if there’s anything we can do to support you 🙂

We schedule our SEN Days as regularly as possible, across our two venues.
They will usually take place at one or other of our sites every few months, and on different days of the week where possible to broaden opportunities to attend to more families.
Eureka! is committed to running these quieter sessions for a full day, rather than just quiet or “twilight” hours, and with reduced ticket numbers and additional activities, as often as programming, staffing and seasonal events allow.
