Santa Express

Recommend age 2-10 years
Santa and his elves are returning to the World's Oldest Operating Electric Railway, and this year Santa will be joining the train ride!
Families will be greeted by one of our elves at Aquarium Station and taken through to Santa's Reading Room, where he will read one of his favourite Christmas stories to all the children and adults alike.
The Santa Express Experience is a shared group session, allowing families and guests to enjoy the festive magic together.
There will then be an opportunity to take photos with Santa, and each child will receive a Christmas gift.
What's that sound in the distance? It’s not sleigh bells, but the sound of a train horn! Wrap up warm and hurry aboard one of our heritage trains, where our elves have added their own magical Christmas touch. Enjoy a festive journey along Brighton seafront with Santa sitting up front, spreading Christmas cheer along the way.
Santa welcomes visitors of all ages. Any adult wishing to enjoy a photo opportunity and receive a gift from Santa should purchase an Adult Santa Express Experience ticket.
Just here for the train ride?
Members of the general public will be able to purchase train ride tickets on the day and join in the festive journey, subject to availability and departure times.
