LIGHTEN up for Christmas at Tatton Park Santa will be arriving at the estate’s Home Farm on Friday, November 29, and families are encouraged to illuminate his his route with lanterns.

The big man will be at the stableyard at 6pm where the farm’s reindeer, Prancer and Dancer, will be waiting.

Children will also be able to post a Christmas wish-list and families can browse for presents at the Christmas Gift Fair.

There is also the opportunity to give a little back by donating any unwanted toys to Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital.

Santa will be at Tatton in the four weekends leading up to Christmas.

Youngsters can meet him and his elves in his grotto.

Bridget Roberts, events manager, said: “Our wonderful lantern parade is guaranteed to start the festive season off with an enchanting evening of sparkle and shimmer.”
