Extend the festive magic with a thrilling visit to Paultons Park – the UK theme park with the most rides open over Christmas!

It’s the seasonal question every parent dreads. How can you entertain the children during the Christmas holidays once the big day has come and gone, and they’re bouncing off the walls now the gifts have been opened?

Here’s the good news! It’s now simple to extend the magic of Christmas, and get plenty of excitement to boot, with a festive visit to a theme park. Forget any misconceptions about attractions being just for the summer; top ranking family attraction, Paultons Park, is now open all the way into the New Year.

Even better yet, it means that theme park tickets will make a fantastic last-minute gift to pop under the tree, creating a wonderful experience for the family to enjoy while they’re all together for the Christmas holidays.

What’s more, Paultons Park offers brilliant value for money over the Christmas break, with more rides open than any other major UK theme park!*  And as the park is packed full of lights, illuminations, and festive décor, it’ll keep the Christmas spirit rolling right through to 2026.

Lawrence Mancey, third generation family director at Paultons Park, said: “We know that parents are often short of options to get the family out of the house between Christmas and New Year. That’s why, for the first time ever, we’re opening Paultons Park after Christmas, right through to the New Year.

“Peppa and George are here throughout the season to spread lots of Christmas joy and laughter, while there’s plenty for older children to enjoy too. We’re operating more rides than any other UK theme park this winter season, with over 30 rides, including six rollercoasters, operating throughout the Christmas holidays.”

Paultons Park is open on selected dates throughout December, until 3rd January 2026.
