Sing Along, Ride Along this Christmas!
In case you haven't been here before, plan 2-3 hours to do everything. The kids can make some Christmas crafts, get their faces painted, and pet the animals. During daylight hours pony "reindeer" are available for rides for children of all ages, and the Snow Queen and her magical horse drawn carriage arrive at dark.
Warm yourself with some hot mulled wine, coffee or tea and make sure to come with an appetite for our delicious famous pancakes!
This year's festival features the new Christmas Village, merry carolling, and the jolly juggler. The storyteller has loads of Christmas tales and will introduce you to her friend Pegasus, and visit the live nativity, Christmas shop and more.
Families come back year after year and we know you will too! What others say about the Slieve Aughty Christmas Festival:
"Santa takes his time to chat with each kid, and he's always jolly and personal. It makes a believer out of even the most cynical."
"a perfect day out and a magical experience"
"Value for money. No one rushing you from one thing to another. Great pancakes. True Christmas welcoming feel."
"Of all the Christmas events my children have been to, they will remember the festival at Slieve Aughty Centre over any other. The festival truly captures the spirit and magic of Christmas in a way that more commercial events cannot achieve."
