Santa opening his Valley grotto
Santa will be bringing his magic to Sandwell Valley this December.
Young visitors can meet Father Christmas in the run-up to Christmas the popular Santa in the Valley events.
Father Christmas will arrive at the farm, off Salters Lane, on Saturday and will be there every Saturday and Sunday until Christmas, as well as Monday, December 23.
Youngsters can visit Santa in his grotto and take part in other activities including magic shows, circus skills workshops and craft activities with Santa's elves. Families can also meet Santa's reindeer, as well as enjoying food and drink from Santa's Shack, Rudolph's Ranch and the tearoom.
Families are encouraged to book tickets online in advance, although some tickets may be available on the day – but will be limited and cannot be guaranteed. Tickets to meet Santa and receive a gift start at £5 for the under 2s and £11 for two to 11-year-olds.
All ticket holders aged 12 and over will receive a token for a free hot drink and mince pie from Santa’s Shack or Rudolph’s Ranch.
