Museum set to host Christmas grotto

25 November 2025

Tickets are still available for a Christmas grotto event being staged at the West Midlands Police Museum – the lock-up – next month.

You can book tickets on Saturday 13 December, Sunday 14 December and Saturday 20 December.

Fun festive activities will include: 

• The opportunity to explore the lock-up to find the gnomes of the North Pole Police Department on a family-friendly trail
• A festive craft activity
• Hot chocolate with every ticket
• A chance to meet Santa in his grotto and receive a festive gift.

You can book tickets via the museum website, adults will pay £10, children over three £12, concessions £8.50 and under threes go free. Select your child’s age range when booking so that an appropriately aged gift may be given, under threes will receive a small gift.

Please note your timed ticket is to see Santa in his grotto, so to be sure to arrive 15 to 20 minutes before your booked time. Late arrivals will be able to visit the museum, but may miss out on visiting Santa in his grotto, depending on availability on the day and at the staff’s discretion.
