Storytelling with Mother Christmas
With Father Christmas preparing for his big night, Mother Christmas is busy spreading some festive joy here at Chepstow Castle!
Children can listen to a festive tale told by Mother Christmas in this beautiful historical setting, and will also receive a small gift (providing they’ve been good!).
Numbers for this event are limited so advanced booking is essential.
Children must be accompanied by an adult (no ticket required for the adult; maximum one accompanying adult per child).
As well as three group sessions, there will be a series of private 10-minute sessions for neurodivergent children for whom a group setting might prove challenging.
Group Sessions at 10.30am, 11.30am and 2.30pm
Neurodivergent family slots at 12.30pm – 2.00pm
To secure a place in a neurodiverse family session, please book a single ticket for the 12:30-13:30 session. Once you have booked your ticket, please email us at ChepstowCastle@gov.wales and we will allocate you a timeslot and add any siblings to the booking. Alternatively, when you arrive at the castle the staff on duty will allocate you a session time.
General admission tickets to explore the whole castle are optional, and not required to attend this event. Please arrive 10 minutes before your session is due to begin.
