Times and prices are what the venue published when we checked. They move, so confirm on the venue's own page before you travel.
What to expect
Santa is in Santa Land from ten in the morning until six in the evening, and there is no charge to see him beyond park entry.
Worth knowing
The six o’clock close is the thing to know: the rest of the site runs until ten, so an evening arrival slot misses the grotto altogether.
Part of Hyde Park Winter Wonderland, which runs from Thursday 19 November 2026 to Sunday 3 January 2027 and is closed on Christmas Day only. Park entry is booked as a dated one hour arrival slot and costs a pound off peak, five pounds fifty standard and eight pounds twenty five at peak, or nothing at all if you add twenty five pounds of rides, food or attractions to the same booking. Booking fees are included in those prices this year.
