General Admission

Castle Christmas is fully wheelchair accessible. Some areas may require alternative routes (such as lifts) and our staff are always available to assist guests requiring accessible paths.

Castle Christmas is a family focused Christmas experience created for children. Bookings consisting solely of adult groups are not permitted and may be refused entry. At least one child must be included in each booking, except where an adult is accompanying another adult who has specific needs or learning difficulties. Castle Christmas reserves the right to refuse entry or cancel bookings that do not meet this requirement.

All attendees including babies under 13 months require a valid ticket as they occupy a designated space within the experience.

Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising children at all times. Castle Christmas accepts no responsibility for injury or loss sustained by unsupervised children.

Ticket Types & Entry

Tickets are sold on the following basis:

Baby – Up to 13 months
Child – 13 months to 12 years
Adults/Carer – 12 years and over

All prices are quoted in Euro.

Tickets are valid only for the specific date and time selected at purchase, unless written consent is provided by Castle Christmas.

Carer’s Ticket Discounts

Castle Christmas offers a discount on Adult tickets for carers.

Guests who are members of Family Carers Ireland and hold a valid membership card must contact Family Carers Ireland directly to obtain a discount code prior to booking.

Guests who hold a valid carer card issued by another registered carers organisation in Ireland may request a discount code by emailing info@castlechristmas.com with a photograph of their valid, in-date carer card. Once verified, a discount code will be issued for use when booking tickets online.

Carer discount codes must be obtained prior to completing your booking. Discounts cannot be applied retrospectively once a booking has been completed.

Guests using a Carer Discount must bring their valid carer card with them on the day of their visit. Castle Christmas reserves the right to request proof of eligibility upon arrival.

A maximum of one carer discount may be applied per child requiring a carer who is attending Castle Christmas.

Please note that Free Travel Passes, Blue Badges, or medical diagnosis letters are not accepted as proof of carer status.

Castle Christmas reserves the right to refuse or remove the discount where valid proof of eligibility cannot be provided.

Arrival Times

Guests must arrive 5 minutes before their scheduled entry time. Early or late arrivals will only be accommodated where operationally possible and are not guaranteed. Late arrivals may result in partial or full loss of the experience and refunds will not be issued in these circumstances. Entry outside your allocated time slot is strictly at the discretion of Castle Christmas management and subject to capacity.

Ticket Scanning & Entry Requirements

A valid ticket must be presented either physically or digitally for entry. We will not accept booking reference numbers, second names, screenshots without a valid scannable ticket, or verbal confirmations in place of the original ticket.

Guests will be required to move between areas at the direction of staff to maintain the safe and efficient operation of the event. The amount of time spent in each room or activity area may vary and is ultimately at the discretion of Castle Christmas management. Guests may not be able to return to previous areas once they have progressed through the experience.

The duration of the Castle Christmas experience may vary depending on operational requirements, guest numbers, and group flow. Any published durations are estimates only and are not guaranteed.
