Santa's Grotto

Come down to Wish Upon A Star for some festive magic, as Santa Claus is coming to town! Find out if you’re on the naughty or nice list, write and send your Christmas wish list off to the North Pole and get stuck into making food for Santa’s reindeer’s! Finally, step into Santa’s grotto for a gift and to photograph the memories for the family to remember for years to come!

‘‘Twas the lead up to Christmas in Blackburn Town Centre
When Santa and his and his friends called out for a helper
He expressed that this year he needed assistance 
“The best of the best” he exclaimed in the distance.

Blackburn instantly knew what they needed to do
Call out to the town, “Santa needs you!”
Upon invitation the children will gather
All jolly and festive, just like dasher.

Come down to Wish Upon A Star for Santa surprise
As Head Elf Holly decides who’s naughty or nice.
But don’t run to far, you’ll have to stay near
As we’ll be making food for Santas reindeers!


Let it snow, let it snow, get ready for it all
Write and send letters off to the North Pole.
To conclude your journey, join in Santas grotto
For pictures, wishes and a gift to take home!
