Plymouth Winter Wonderland has returned for a second year, bigger and brighter than ever. Following the resounding success of last year’s event, the winter festival will be at Central Park until January 1, 2025.

Opening Today (Friday 15th November 3:30pm) and organised by local entrepreneurs Jack Fry and Dave Monk this year’s Plymouth Winter Wonderland at Central Park promises to be even more enchanting, with a host of festive delights for all ages.

Jack, who owns a number of businesses in Plymouth and surrounding area, including The Odd Wheel at Wembury said:

“After the resounding success of last year’s Winter Wonderland, we’re delighted to be back in Central Park with an even bigger and brighter event.

“We wanted to do something that was a little bit different and fun for all the family to enjoy – we know it’s been a tough year for many so we’re keen to create something special for friends and families to enjoy which is great value for money.

“This event is a huge addition to the already brilliant Christmas events that are happening around the city and we hope it becomes a regular on the Plymouth Christmas calendar for years to come.”

This year’s Plymouth Winter Wonderland includes:

Ice rink – hourly skating sessions (bookable in advance), complete with festive music, twinkling lights, and a daily Christmas disco! For the little ones, skating aids will be available to ensure a fun and safe experience.

Santa’s Enchanted Forest Grotto – a magical journey through the enchanted forest to meet Santa and his elves. Each visit includes a special gift to make the experience even more memorable. No need to pre-book, just show up on the day.

Live music under the Big Top – festive vibes under the glow of Christmas lights at the Big Top, a German-style music arena with a capacity of 1500. Entertainment with a variety of local musicians performing live on stage to get the festive spirit going.

Festive food stalls – a variety of festive treats from local vendors, including German grills, giant pigs in blankets, warming Yorkshire pudding wraps and crispy roasties.

Apres Ski Bar – festive tipples at the Christmas Bar in the Big Top, offering a variety of seasonal drinks and hot beverages.

Rides and attractions – a selection of family favourite rides will be available at a small additional charge.

Entry to this year’s Winter Wonderland experience is £1 per person; additional charges apply for the ice rink and some of the rides and attractions.

On Sunday December 15, for the first time in Central Park there will be a Reindeer Run in association with Taurus Events.

Participants will dash and prance their way around Central Park, with their very own reindeer ears, as part of the entry fee, and after completing the fun run will receive complimentary and exclusive early access to the Winter Wonderland too.
