Christmas is coming and Santa and his elves are about to embark on their busiest night of the year, but there’s a problem – the sleigh is kaput. It’s going to take a troupe of holiday heroes to help the elves in a race against time to Save Santa’s Sleigh and Harlequin Watford has been identified as mission control!

Step into Santa’s Sleigh Repair Workshop and join team ‘Magical Mechanics’ for a hands-on festive adventure. Will you accept this top-secret mission to help Walter Wrench, Cora Coggs and Sally Sparkles in a race to repair Santa’s sleigh in time for Christmas?

The Sleigh Repair Workshop is bursting with giggles, gadgets and Christmas magic around every corner. But chaos reigns - bolts are loose, fairy lights flicker, and Santa’s broken sleigh needs to be repaired! Little fixers will clock in, roll up their sleeves and don the Magical Mechanics apron and safety googles as they get to work uncovering the mystery of the broken sleigh.

With teamwork, laughter, and a sprinkle of festive sparkle, the sleigh will whir back to life, one magic cog at a time - complete with flashing lights and magical sounds!

Santa himself will arrive to thank his Magical Mechanics in person! Every child will get to meet Santa, snap their own festive photo, and take home a little thank you token.

This not-to-be-missed immersive festive experience runs from Saturday 29th November – Wednesday 24th December and is located within a shop unit on the Lower Mall, near to Boots.
