The Jingle Bell Express (final few days!)

Date
Mon, Dec 22 2025
Features

Trains running on the 20th, 21st, 22nd and 23rd of December!

This festive season join us on a magical Christmas train ride through the South Nottingham countryside. The Jingle Bell Express is a festive adventure where children and families help Santa to gather enough Christmas cheer to power his sleigh. Along the journey you will be treated to interactive seat dances, toe tapping original songs and joyful activities that will usher in the Christmas spirit. With twinkling lights, mischievous elves and a surprise visit from Santa, this unforgettable ride is sure to create lasting memories. Reserve your tickets now!

Ticket prices are as shown (no concessions) however, children 2 and under are free but may need to sit on an adults knee if all seats are booked. All children up to the age of 10 will receive a gift from Santa. 

The carriages are from our heritage fleet and as such the designs do not allow for ease of access for wheelchair users to which we apologise. 

Small, well behaved dogs are allowed but will not receive a present from Santa.
