About
Children can meet Santa Claus in 10-minute time slots at Edinburgh Zoo's Christmas grotto inside the Budongo Trail building on selected days in December.
Edinburgh Zoo's Festive Grotto gives young visitors the chance to meet Santa Claus inside the Budongo Trail building. The grotto is available to book on selected days between 5 and 24 December, with 10-minute time slots running from 10:20am to 3:30pm. The grotto ticket does not include entry to the zoo, so admission tickets must be bought separately alongside the grotto booking.
