Disclosure: This post is a review in collaboration with Silcock’s Winter Wonderland. Please see our disclosure policy for more information.
Silcock’s Winter Wonderland is finally back in Manchester after a four-year break and I am so excited. We are huge fans of the event, having attended it a few times over the years.
It’s the perfect way to kick off the Christmas celebrations in style and it’s definitely the highlight of the festive season for us. As someone who loves to save money on a family day out, I think you really do get great value for your money at Silcok’s Winter Wonderland.
Winter Wonderland 2017 Review.
There are so many great features included in the price of your ticket with more than 50 family rides and attractions including dodgems, roller coasters, waltzers, a runaway train, inflatables, and even a beach. You can also watch a mini pantomime, a Christmas circus, an Ice Princess show and more.
You can also see the big man himself Father Christmas who will be greeting children right up until Christmas Eve. There is an opportunity to purchase a toy and keepsake photograph from the Father Christmas Toy Workshop.
