Santa At Bunratty  

Santa Claus at Bunratty 2012 will be open soon for bookings

Mrs. Claus, a troupe of Elves and a host of other Christmas characters will be among the special visitors to Bunratty Folk Park, Co. Clare, in the lead up to Christmas. This event will operate from Friday December 2nd to Friday December 23rd (inclusive) and visitors to Bunratty can experience a magical, festive atmosphere in a unique and traditional village street setting at Bunratty Folk Park.

This is an event for all the family visiting Santa Claus & his Elves in his Grotto.  They can also call in to see Mrs. Claus in her Kitchen as she prepares for Santa's trip - making sure his clothes are ironed and he has plenty of food for his journey.  There will be an opportunity to listen to the Folk Park story teller as he recalls colourful tales of Christmas long ago.  A complimentary glass of mulled wine and mince pies awaits adults in Corry’s Pub. 
 
The village street will be decked with holly, and festooned with fairy lights, and the village Christmas tree will be adorned for the occasion.

The young and not so young will be treated to a puppet show and they can join in the fun by chatting to the surprise Christmas Characters who will be wandering the village street, you might even bump into Scrooge, the Charles Dickens classic character, during your visit. Christmas themed shops selling Christmas fare will ensure that visitors can get in a bit of last minute shopping!
