Please also include a contact telephone number. We will then contact you should any tickets become available. Thank you.

There is a reason why families return year after year to join us for our City Cruises York Santa Experience, it really is the most magical event on the River Ouse! And tickets for 2020 are on sale now!

Santa clearly works hard all year around and especially in December when he somehow manages to find the time to visit all of the especially well behaved boys and girls before Christmas and he tells us that the City Cruises York Santa Experience is the most unique venue that he visits in the city.

Santa and his team have made a few changes this year, to make sure that we can offer you a secure and comfortable visit, without missing out on any of the fun.

You will join Santa and friends aboard the Captain James Cook, our largest boat, meaning that there will be more space for groups to socially distance.

Each group will be seated at their own table for up to 6 guests.

Any group of 6 or more will be sat on socially distanced or partitioned tables with a maximum of 6 per table.

There will be transparent screen between all tables.

All touch points will be cleaned regularly, staff will wear appropriate PPE, and hand sanitiser will be available around the vessel.

Social distancing will be in effect during queuing, boarding and disembarking.

Each child will receive an individual colouring and activity pack.

Each family group will have an opportunity to spend time with Santa in his grotto area and photo opportunity (no charge for photos - please bring your own camera).

There will also be a competition held aboard each cruise with fantastic tourist attraction entry tickets to be won!

This is a pre-booked event only. You can pre-book tickets online up to 1 day before the day of travel, subject to availability.
