The magical winter family experience features a variety of attractions including Santa’s Magical Circus in the majestic Big Top. A 45-minute show presented by the famous Chipperfield family, the audience must help save Santa and Mrs Clause from the evil Snow Queen.

This year M & D’s on Ice features a new undercover ice-rink where visitors can also enjoy the delights of a Bavarian Bar and Churros unit.

A family favourite, Believe is a festive story telling experience where the residents of Candy Cane Cottage retell their own hilarious version of the famous classic The Night Before Christmas.

Destination Christmas wouldn’t be complete without a visit to meet Santa and his elves in his workshop and his magical Grotto with lots of different festive scenes to enjoy. Visitors can also see Santa’s reindeer as well as post a letter to Santa and enjoy a ride on Sparkle’s outdoor train.

Destination Christmas also features dedicated ASN and BSL led sessions.

Jensen Taylor Connelly, Director, M&D’s Scotland’s Theme Park said: “This is undoubtedly our favourite time of year and we look forward to welcoming visitors to Destination Christmas. With its lovely themed decorations and variety of festive attractions, it’s just a magical time for everyone to enjoy.”

Destination Christmas runs on selected dates until Christmas Eve, Tuesday 24th December. Further information and ticket details are available from www.scotlandsthemepark.com/events/

Located at Strathclyde Park in Motherwell, Lanarkshire, M&D’s Scotland’s Theme Park is packed with many additional attractions, including Amazonia, Devil’s Island Adventure Golf, Cosmic Bowl, and Krazy Congo Soft Play, as well as rides suitable for all age groups.

There are also many food outlets to enjoy, including the award-winning Monterey Jack’s American themed diner which has a special festive menu available. www.scotlandsthemepark.com
