Upcoming events in Sunderland

The Lapland Adventure VR ride will take you on a magical adventure through Lapland, where you'll fly around on Santa's sleigh through the sky and through his workshop to meet his elves as they get ready for the big day!

The sparkly new Grotto at The Bridges Sunderland means you'll be able to meet Santa everyday until he needs to nip off to deliver everyone's presents on Christmas Eve!

Sign up to the official Sunderland Boxing Day Dip 2023 organised by the Sunderland Lions Club & Red Sky Foundation, supported by Stack Seaburn & Sunderland City Council. Take the plunge, raise money for your favourite charity and endure the cold North Sea to become a brave Seaburn dipper.

Join Belle, The Beast, Fairy Bon Bon, Rorina La Plonk and her cheeky chappy son Louis La Plonk, alongside a whole host of larger than life characters, as they are transported to a cursed castle under the spell of an evil enchantress.
