Santa Claus is coming to town and making a scheduled stop at Battersea Arts Centre.
Setting up shop in our historic building, we’ve decked the halls and created a cosy nook for Old Saint Nick ready to meet your loved ones this festive season.
Little ones can share their Christmas wishes, get their name added to the nice list and receive a gift from Santa himself, creating lasting memories for the whole family this December.

Please arrive promptly for the beginning of your time slot to ensure your visit with Santa. Due to the number of bookings, we cannot guarantee your child will be able to visit Santa should you miss your pre-booked time slot.
