Santa’s Grotto 2026

Get ready to experience the magic of Christmas here at Broad Street Mall!

Santa’s sleigh is on its way, and he’s making a very special stop at Central Square to meet lots of excited little shoppers.

From Saturday 21^st November to Thursday 24th December, families can drop in to meet the man in red. No booking needed!

For just £6.50 per child, enjoy a magical meet-and-greet with Santa and receive a special festive gift.

Treasure the memory of meeting Santa forever and purchase photos and keepsakes from your visit separately.

Find the Grotto dates and times below – and don’t forget to bring your wish list!

Adding to the festive sparkle, talented local musicians will be performing heart-warming Christmas tunes on selected Saturdays over the festive period. 

Take a moment to pause, sing along, and let the magic of live music make your shopping trip extra special.

Give a little extra love this Christmas with Topsy’s Teddy Bear Mission!

This festive season, help give a child the gift of comfort with Topsy’s Teddy Bear Mission, in partnership with The Teddy Trust. Donate a traditional teddy bear and give it a new home with a child who needs a cuddly friend.

For a child who has never owned a teddy bear, receiving one could mean much more than having a new toy. It’s something to cuddle, a friendly face to turn to and a little companion to call their own.
