Sensory Santa at Winter Wonderland, Westport Estate

On Wednesday, 3rd December 2025, Westport Estate will host our annual Sensory Santa session at Winter Wonderland, a magical experience designed to be a little calmer and more relaxed, while still full of Christmas cheer.

This special session is particularly suited for children with autism, sensory sensitivities, or those who benefit from a gentler environment. We brighten the lights and soften the Christmas music to create a soothing atmosphere. Santa will meet with families individually, and numbers are reduced to make the visit more peaceful and enjoyable. Siblings are warmly welcome to join in the festive fun too!

Along with meeting Santa, there’s so much to enjoy, say hello to Mrs Claus, explore Tinsel Town with its snowy village and playful Elves, visit the live crib, and soak up all the festive sights.

With a little less bustle and a lot more calm, our Sensory Santa Day is all about creating magical moments your family will treasure this Christmas.
