Join us at Cliffe Castle as we celebrate Christmas over two very special weekends. There’s something for everyone with live music, market stalls, family crafts and more across the different dates. And of course, we’ll be joined by a very special guest each day… Santa himself!
Please note that tickets for Santa’s Grotto are priced at £10 each which includes a gift and certificate. All proceeds go to Keighley Lions. Whilst a very limited number of tickets will be available on the day, booking via the following link is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment: www.keighleylions.org.uk/shop/p/santas-grotto-ticket-cliffe-castle
