New story from Disney telling the tale of an extraordinary family, the Madrigals, who live hidden in the mountains of Colombia, in a magical house, in a vibrant town, in a wondrous, charmed place called an Encanto.

The magic of the Encanto has blessed every child in the Madrigal family with a unique gift from super strength to the power to heal-every child. Except for one, Mirabel. When she discovers that the magic surrounding the Encanto is in danger, Mirabel decides that she, the only ordinary Madrigal, might just be her exceptional family’s last hope.

Boasting songs by Lin Manual Miranda (he of Hamilton fame), this is a joyous and uplifting story that families will enjoy.

We have some fun additions to the park this Winter.

First, meet our duetting reindeer in Wonderwood. They love nothing more than singing their favourite tunes…you might find yourself joining in with them!

Then there is something rather unusual happening at the Tropical Hot House- some familiar wintery creatures have mysteriously appeared and are enjoying the tropical climate in style.

See if you can spot them all!

Finally, we have a magical Winter wonderland photo op in Bamboozeleum- plus all those cool exhibits to play around with. We are sure some little ones will love to take photos with our majestic Winter unicorn at Reception.

Join us for an atmospheric torchlight parade through Grantown on Spey. This event will be led by the Fireservice followed by Santa and his trusty reindeer. There will be carols in The Square and mulled wine and mince pies for sale.

Come and join us for some Christmas cheer at the Village Green!

There will be fun for all the family with singing, mulled wine, nativity story, a Christmas quiz and more!

Last year’s restrictions forced us outdoors for a Carols by Headlight service, which was a great time. We hope to keep the same rustic feel but to be in person this year rather than in cars!
