You should understand that by purchasing tickets to the Experience, you and your guests and other members of your group agree to be bound by and comply with these Terms and Conditions and you agree to the use of personal data in accordance with the terms of our Privacy Policy.

1. YOUR EXPERIENCE
1.1 It is important to us that you and your fellow visitors enjoy visiting the Experience. We set out below some important rules which you and your fellow visitors will need to be aware of and comply with:
a. as part of the Experience, we will issue each child with an individual wristband for use throughout the Experience;
b. For the purposes of the Experience and these Terms and Conditions, a “Child” is someone aged between 12 months and 16 years old (inclusive), an “Adult” is someone aged 17 years or over and a “Baby” is someone aged up to and including 12 months. We reserve the right to request proof of age and this must be produced on request. Please note that these ages relate to the age of the Adult, Child or Baby at the time of visiting the Experience rather than at the time you make your booking:
c. The Activities are only suitable for a Child, not for a Baby or Adult.
d. If the Child has paid in full to do the Activities and see Santa they will receive a Christmas Gift
e. the timing and sequence of the activities that make up the Experience is at the sole discretion of our management;
f. smoking is not permitted anywhere in the Experience;
g. pets or other animals may not be brought in to the Experience (except guide or assistance dogs);
h. we will use reasonable endeavors to ensure the Experience is a happy and memorable one for you and your fellow guests for all the right reasons, however we cannot be liable for distress caused by circumstances beyond our control (including but not limited to the weather conditions) nor for any emotional distress or disappointment caused by the role playing of characters (including, without limitation, if any Child (or Adult) loses his or her belief in Santa for any reason as a result of visiting the Experience).

2. HOW THE CONTRACT IS FORMED BETWEEN YOU AND US
When you give us your order (for example, by telephone or by completing the booking form) this constitutes an offer by you to us to buy a visit to the Experience. All orders by you are subject to acceptance by us, and we will confirm our acceptance of your booking by sending you an email that confirms that your booking (or any other purchase) has been successful (the “Booking Confirmation Email”). The contract between us for purchase of tickets to the Experience (the “Contract”) will only be formed when we send you the Booking Confirmation Email.

3. YOUR STATUS
3.1 You can only purchase tickets to the Experience if you are 18 years old or more.
3.2 Children must be accompanied at the Experience by the Adults in their party and must remain under their supervision at all times while in the Experience. (Please see clause 1.1(b) for how we define “Child” and “Adult”).
3.3 Each booking must include at least one full paying Child and one Adult.

4. ADMISSION & RIGHT OF ENTRY
4.1 Tickets issued to you are required for entry to the Experience.
Our management reserve the right to refuse entry to you (and your fellow guests) if you fail to present the above when required on entry to the Experience.
4.2 The Experience itself and your visit (and the visits of our other visitors) is set to a strict timetable. Please ensure that you and your guests arrive before your scheduled entry time. At the absolute discretion of our management, entry to the Experience may be refused if you (or your guest(s) as the case may be) arrive after your allocated entry time. In any event, unfortunately any late entry will mean that you and your guests will miss out on some of the activities.
4.3 In exceptional cases, our management reserves the right to refuse entry to individuals to the Experience, or remove those who have already been admitted, if in their reasonable opinion, the presence of those individuals is likely to considerably lower the enjoyment of other guests.

5.1 With the exception of inside and the area immediately around Santa (which are restricted filming areas), non-professional photography and video recording is permitted anywhere in the Experience. All images and videos must be for non-commercial use only.
5.2 We do not supervise the taking of non-professional photography and video recording at the Experience and so we cannot be responsible if you or any of your fellow guests (including any Child or Baby) is featured in any other visitor’s photograph or recording which is subsequently published or distributed in any form.
5.3 You should be aware that we may carry out photography and video recording while you are in the Experience and we may wish to use certain images for promotional purposes.

6. PRICE AND PAYMENT
6.1 The price of entry to the Experience will be as quoted by us from time to time on www.santas-work-shop.co.uk

7.2 We will use reasonable endeavours to update the Website throughout the duration of the Experience to keep you informed about any potential postponement or cancellation of the Experience.
