Christmas @ Cantref Adventure Farm

Christmas at Cantref is a festive family experience in the heart of the beautiful Brecon Beacons (Bannau Brycheiniog), just minutes from Brecon. Far more than just a Santa's Grotto, it's an immersive Christmas wonderland and a full family day out, where magical festive adventures, interactive games, enchanting characters and unforgettable memories await around every corner.

Step inside Santa's magical Christmas Wonderland, where the adventure begins before you even meet Father Christmas. Join Santa's cheeky elves as they guide you through a magical festive journey filled with interactive games, laughter and Christmas magic. Along the way, children can take part in festive fun before arriving at Santa's grotto for their special one-to-one meeting. Santa will check his official Naughty or Nice List before presenting each child with one of his magical golden keys to unlock the Present Room, where they can choose their very own Christmas gift.

Your festive adventure continues with a full programme of Christmas entertainment throughout the day, including Elf Academy, Mr Ev's Christmas Show, gingerbread decorating with Mary Christmas, Christmas party games, reindeer food making, Santa's sleigh, the chimney slide, snowball games, pet handling, festive crafts and so much more. With live festive shows and activities taking place throughout the day, there's always something magical waiting around the corner.

Your ticket also includes entry to Cantref Adventure Farm, where you can enjoy indoor and outdoor play, meet hundreds of friendly farm animals, visit the Big Animal Barn and experience our famous sledge ride, making Christmas at Cantref one of the most magical Christmas family days out in Wales.

Make your visit even more special with optional Build-a-Bear experiences, allowing children to create their own cuddly Christmas companion to take home as a treasured keepsake. Throughout the day, relax and enjoy a selection of delicious festive food, seasonal drinks and sweet treats from our café, perfect for warming up between festive adventures.

Located in the stunning Brecon Beacons National Park, Christmas at Cantref has become one of the most popular Christmas events in Wales, welcoming thousands of families each year to create magical festive memories together.

Advance booking is essential, with timed Santa visits helping to minimise queues so you can spend more time enjoying everything the experience has to offer.
