Step into a Christmas Wonderland at Dynamic Earth!

Looking for a Christmas experience that goes beyond the ordinary? Dynamic Earth has created a holiday adventure like no other, inviting you to journey through time and nature to meet Santa Claus in his very own North Pole grotto.

Begin your magical expedition by travelling back to the dawn of our planet, exploring volcanoes, glaciers, and the deepest oceans. Along the way, you'll encounter the wonder of the natural world, and follow a festive journey of activities, setting the stage for your encounter with the man in red himself. Inside his real iceberg grotto, Father Christmas awaits to hear your holiday wishes and spread the joy of the season. Them take to the skies in our spectacular Planetarium, in our festive Winter Wonderland live stargazing show.
