A Dash of Magic!

Brand new for Christmas 2023 – A Dash of Magic – a fully immersive, family fun experience at Whilton Locks Winter Wonderland.

Join Dash in Santa’s magic powered sleigh in full HD Virtual Reality in a fantastical Christmas journey.

Seating up to 8 people*, our virtual reality sleigh ride offers a perfect family attraction during the festive period! Housed in Santa’s sleigh lodge, once aboard, you’ll be seamlessly transported into the virtual bay using our HD VR headsets.

*This experience is NOT suitable for children under 3 years old.

Christmas at Whilton Locks

Counting Down to Christmas

Oh the weather outside is frightful
This summer really isn’t delightful (is it?)
And just in case you didn’t know
Christmas is just 4 months to go!

Man summer has no signs of starting
So the link to fun I’m imparting
Our prices are kept way down low
If you know, let’s all go, ho ho ho!

Now we’ve finally planned good times
How you’ll hate missing out of the fun
But if you really plan alright
Your Christmas bookings will be done!

The rain and wind keeps making me sighing
And, oh dear, we all keep crying
But so long as you book in – go!
Now you know, let’s all go, ho ho ho!

Our Festive Fun is now available to book here:
