PRICING
| C | A | |
|---|---|---|
| Peak* | $19 | $14 |
| Off-peak* | $15 | $11 |
Under 18 mths: Free
*Please refer to Santa’s Schedule to see which days are Peak and which are Off-peak.
To ensure everyone has a wonderful experience, Santa sessions are limited to one family per 5-minute time slot. This prevents long waits in the snow, especially for families with young children. Each session accommodates up to six people. If your family is larger or you wish to combine two families for a photoshoot, you must book an additional session either immediately before or after your own.
Larger family shoots take more time, so it’s important to adhere to the group size limit upon arrival. Unplanned combinations will not only extend the wait for others, but we may also be unable to accommodate them.
If you combine families without prior arrangement, the photographer will only have time for one photo session, and won’t be able to take separate family shots. To avoid this, please book back-to-back sessions if two families are involved.

What to wear.
It might be summer but shorts and jandals are not the go in the dome folks!
When you visit Santa inside his Winter Wonderland you need to remember we keep it at a chilly -5 degrees to make sure Santa feels at home. Please wear lots of warm clothes, a beanie and gloves. Also, the snow tends to make your shoes wet, so waterproof shoes or snow boots are recommended.
Don’t worry if you don’t have these or forget something, you can hire them on the day for a special price – only for Santa visitors! Don’t forget your gloves!
