The Experience
The Flight Before Christmas
Step into a world of magic and wonder with the Negus Christmas Experience, The Flight Before Christmas! Join us for an unforgettable journey filled with interactive workshops and engaging activities that are sure to delight the whole family.
Last year, Negus, the magnificent jumbo jet played a crucial role in saving Christmas. When Father Christmas' sleigh suffered a mechanical failure, Negus stepped in to help deliver presents to children all around the world. This year, Father Christmas and his team of elves are gearing up for another big Christmas delivery, and they're asking for your help!
The Flight Before Christmas is back! We are so excited to welcome you on board Negus 747 for another year packed full of Christmas magic! New for 2024, The Flight Before Christmas has been fully revamped, including new characters, activities, and completely new sections that you and your family can immerse yourself in.
With these new activities, we have increased the experience time to a minimum of 1hour and 30 minutes giving you more time to experience the magic of The Flight Before Christmas like never before. The Flight Before Christmas is a performance-based experience, lasting at least an hour and a half, including a visit to Father Christmas for a story time session.
It is advisable to allow over 2 hours for the experience, to fully enjoy our new area where you can spend as much time as you wish and enjoy the entertainment on offer.
