Tips & Advice
- Book early, because popular times sell out fast and you choose a set date and time when you buy tickets.
- Wheelchair users should add the free wheelchair pass, and try another session that day if train wheelchair space is already full.
- Order the Magic Mail Pack at least 14 days before your visit and double-check the delivery address you enter when booking.
- Pick the Sunday 22 November or Wednesday 9 December session if your child would be more comfortable with lowered music and smaller crowds.
- Carers should bring ID or documentation such as a membership card, because the free carer ticket isn't confirmed until it's checked on the day.
