  • Get a ticket for every group member, including pre-walking infants, who attend free but must be ticketed.
  • Bring ear defenders if a child is particularly sensitive to noise or may need to nap during the event.
  • Use the buggy park rather than taking a buggy onto the dancefloor, and carry babies in slings there.
  • Consider fancy dress if you want to join the optional festive theme; it is not required.

  • Face painting is sold separately; children must be over 2 to be painted.
