Santa’s Cove Dublin

We are very excited to announce that Santa’s Cove is coming to Liffey Valley!

The experience will be over 4,000 square feet and the website for Ireland’s ultimate Christmas event. Families will have to traverse through ‘Yuletide Valley’ to earn their place on Santa’s sleigh where the children will take the reins and treat their parents to a trip in the sky… YES, we did say in the sky!
You’ll make magic reindeer food in the ‘Stable Rooms’ and Christmas decorations in the ‘Toy Room’. Mrs. Claus will be on hand to serve hot chocolate and treats to everyone, before the children take a seat on the world’s first ‘Naughty Or Nice Machine’.
The machine comes to life when the candy cane lever is pulled and the antler helmet placed just above the child’s head. The machine will magically read the child’s thoughts to a symphony of bells, whistles and noises. A ‘Nice’ result means the machine will reward you with candy, redemption tickets PLUS a special ‘Nice Certificate’ which you can give to Santa when you meet him on your private family visit.

LIMITED AVAILABILITY
Book now to avoid disappointment. This will undoubtedly be Ireland’s Best Santa Experience
Please visit https://liffey-valley.santascove.eu/ for further information.

  • Infants (0-11 months): FREE
  • Children (1yr +): €25.00 (includes gift and photo)
