Santa on the Roof Returns: Fenwick Newcastle Announces Schedule of Festive Fun This Christmas

Tickets for Santa on the Roof go on sale on Thursday 29 September with a packed schedule of seasonal experiences announced for November and December
FENWICK Newcastle today announces its seasonal schedule of Christmas festivities starting with the return of Santa on the Roof – a chance for families to meet the big man himself on the Fenwick rooftop from 7 November until 24 December 2022 with tickets on sale from 10am on Thursday 29 September.
Tickets for Santa’s Breakfast Club, Santa’s Supper Club, Santa’s Cinema, and new event this year, Afternoon Tea with Santa will all follow with tickets available from 10am on Thursday 6 October 2022. This year all restaurant experiences do not include a visit to Santa on the Roof as part of the experience and must be purchased separately.
Due to high demand, Fenwick ticket provider, Ticketsource will be providing a virtual queue to help manage bookings. From the moment a customer joins the queue, it is recommended that they do not load multiple tabs or refresh their browser.
Now a staple in the region’s Yuletide calendar, the enchanting Santa on the Roof experience begins with a ride in Santa’s Express Elevator to the top of the incredibly festive flagship store. From there, guests will be greeted by Santa’s singing reindeer, before jumping inside a safely parked elf-mobile, ready to explore Santa’s magical Cabin and meet Father Christmas. Ticketholders will have the chance to help the mischievous elves with a spot of crafting – decorating a bespoke ceramic plate to take home, ready to top with Christmas Eve treats – with the festive fun concluding with a stop off at Café Claus for winter warming drinks and sweet treats as well as one last 'Elfie' inside Santa’s sleigh.
The season’s celebrations don’t stop there, with Fenwick’s deliciously entertaining experiences continuing in Arthur's Restaurant located on the First Floor of the Newcastle store, including Santa’s Breakfast Club and Santa’s Supper Club, as well as the brand-new Afternoon Tea with Santa. A sprinkling of cinematic magic will also take place at the store’s exclusive Santa’s Cinema, located on the Fifth Floor screening festive family favourites.
Santa’s Breakfast Club and Santa’s Supper Club
Start the day Santa-side-up with the magical Santa’s Breakfast Club on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday mornings from Friday 9 November until Friday 23 December. Enjoy waffles, eggs and sausages-galore at Arthur’s Restaurant with a chance to meet the mischievous elves and Santa himself. Little ones will be able to enjoy a spot of colouring, with Fenwick’s bespoke Christmas colouring book, as well as Elf hats provided for especially good girls and boys. Father Christmas will take to the stage when children are eating and once finished, they will be invited up by the elves for a picture and Christmas gift.
Santa’s Supper Club also returns from Friday 9 November until Friday 23 December, offering a delicious seasonal two-course supper at Arthur’s Restaurant and a chance to greet Father Christmas while he keeps his eye on his mischievous elves.
