Athlone Castle will transform into a magical Christmas experience on the 16th and 17th of December this year as we celebrate Christmas with all the charm and atmosphere of an historic castle.
Santa and Mrs. Claus will be visiting for two days to meet children in Athlone. Santa’s helpers will greet visitors on entry to the castle courtyard, and children will then meet Mrs. Claus who will regale them with her favourite Christmas stories from the cosy Castle Keep. Visitors will make their way through the seasonally decorated castle and enjoy festive fun activities including Christmassy crafts, games, and dress-up areas with Christmas music along the way. Santa’s helpers will guide you to our magical castle grotto where Santa Claus will be waiting with cuddly gifts for all the children. Hot chocolate with marshmallows will be served in the castle courtyard before concluding the Christmas visit.
Photo opportunities will be aplenty so you can treasure these special memories forever.
