Father Christmas will be returning to Truro City Centre for eight dates from Saturday 7th December.
The experience, which takes place with other families, is a chance to join Jingle the Elf for a festive, storytelling treat at the Royal Cornwall Museum in Truro.
Meet Father Christmas at his Kernow office and hear him tell the story of Jim the Cornish Knocker. Jim always dreamed of becoming one of the famous Christmas Elves that works at the North Pole, perhaps you can help Jim’s dreams come true.
Every child will receive a small gift and have the chance to meet Father Christmas.
Families can photograph their child meeting Father Christmas and can explore the fascinating exhibits of museum if they wish after meeting Father Christmas.
