The Santa Express
All aboard our brand-new Santa Express train as you journey to the North Pole to visit Santa. The elves have been busy building a new train to transport you to Santa’s house.
Santa was so impressed by the work the elves did on the train he designed a new station where you will begin your trip to Santa and Mrs Claus.
On your way to the North Pole, you will travel through an exciting new addition to the journey called “The Tunnel of Lights” which is sure to build the anticipation before you arrive at the North Pole.
When you reach your destination, you will be greeted by Santa’s elves who will entertain you with a fun filled show before Mrs. Claus will read a story and lead a sing-along, and of course, you will get to visit with the big man himself, Santa!
Last year, the Wicklow Christmas Market debuted the Eco Ice Rink, and it was such a huge success that we have expanded it this year by 60%! Skate along on our environmentally friendly ice rink to the sounds of Christmas carols while soaking in the festive sights of all things Christmas. Our state-of-the-art rink provides the look and feel of real ice, without any negative effects to the environment.
