Santa’s Workshop at Aillwee Caves is a fantastic way to see in the Xmas season with you children from 1st – 22nd Dec.  Santa specifically chose this cave to expand his ever growing toy making business and invites children from all over Ireland to experience what the spirit of Christmas means to him and his dedicated workers.

Santa’s Kingdom at Imecofarm,Clarecastle, invites you to join in the festive spirit when this huge period building will be transformed into a Xmas delight, with markets, snow play area, a ‘BIG’ style floor piano and train rides.  You can also follow the star to baby Jesus, go meet Santa in his cottage for a story and Mrs Claus has a very special free gift ready for you.

Captain Santa has a very special surprise for you when you visit him, in Shannon, on his own AEROPLANE!!  Join him on the weekends of 8th & 9th and 17th &18th Dec, in the cockpit to see where it all happens.  Fly all over the world in the flight simulation area and know how it feels to be the big man on Xmas Eve!
