Lapland UK opinions please

[TheHappiestChristmasTree]

Hello,

I'm already thinking ahead to next Christmas and what Santa experience to take DD to. I know these Santa experiences tend to go on sale just after Christmas for the next Christmas 🫣

Anyone who has been to Lapland UK this year- can you please let me know your opinions? Is it as magical as it looks? Is it overcrowded?

I am thinking of booking the Manchester one which is new for next year. Just a bit worried it may not be that great though if it's in it's first year?!

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated thanks 😊

I loved it (so did the kids). It was busy but not unbearably so, we went first thing though so it may get busier in the later slots. I’d go again in a few years, probably a twilight slot next time as I think it would be even more magical lit up at night. The best bits for us were the unscripted bits (the village and the visit to the Big Man himself). My two (6 and 4) didn’t really engage with the scripted bits in the toy factory / Mother Christmas. But Father Christmas was so amazing it made me tear up a bit. He was perfect, the actual real Father Christmas. We got another year of believing for my 6 year old 100% because of him
