About

Ho Ho Howay! We’re making a new Christmas tradition at Discovery Museum. Step into a Geordie winter wonderland at the Canny Christmas Grotto. 

From twinkling lights to the warmest welcome this side of the Tyne, families can enjoy a magical meet-and-greet with Santa and his black and white elves, who’ve swapped the North Pole for the North East! 

Expect festive crafts, a hot chocolate treat, a sprinkle of Geordie charm - and a gift from Santa.
