Santa Underground at the Mining Museum

About the event



This Christmas, before Santa goes down your chimney he is going down the mine! Travel 140m underground to join Santa in his unique and atmospheric underground grotto where he will be waiting to meet a few select children. Will the bell place you on the naughty or nice list? Good children will receive a present and certificate while naughty ones will get coal…

The Museum is south of Dewsbury on the main road between Huddersfield and Wakefield. There is ample car parking.
