Free Entry to the Heart of Winter Festivities
Step into a winter wonderland where admission is free, and every path leads to something wonderful. Winter Village will be open during the day and welcomes all to revel in the festive atmosphere. For those looking to enhance their festive experience, Santa’s Grotto and Glide On Glice, our eco-friendly ice skating, will be available at an additional cost.

Santa’s Grotto: A Magical Encounter
Embark on a whimsical journey to Santa’s Grotto, open 7 days a week from 10 am to 6 pm until the 24th of December. Delight in the joy of meeting Santa and receiving a special gift. Post-visit, wander the Winter Village, take in the cheerful ambiance, relax in our undercover seating area, or indulge in the culinary delights of our festive food stalls.

Glide On Glice: An Eco-Conscious Winter Adventure
Glide into a sustainable skating experience with Glide On Glice, featuring an eco-friendly rink crafted with innovative waterless, zero-energy Swiss technology. Open from the 12th of December to the 7th of January (closed Christmas Day), the rink is perfect for date nights, family outings, or even a dance-off at one of our Dance On Glice discos with live DJs. Sessions are suitable for ages 3 and up and are available in 45-minute increments.

Xmas Market: A Local Wonderland
Support the heart of Scotland's community by purchasing unique gifts from local artisans and suppliers. The Xmas Market is your one-stop destination for finding that perfect, thoughtful gift while backing local craftsmanship and trade.

Simple, Convenient, and Festive
No pre-booking is required to enter the Accies Event Village, making your festive plans flexible and stress-free. Both cash and card are accepted by all operators and bars, though pre-booking for Santa’s Grotto and ice skating is advised to ensure a spot in these popular attractions.
