And it includes a meet & greet with the man himself!
‘Saving Santa’ is an interactive Santa experience aimed at families designed by the brains behind WeEscape.
Step aboard a magical elevator and journey straight to the snow-covered wonderland of Lapland. But Christmas is in danger, and only you can save it! With escape room-inspired puzzles, kids need to follow clues and solve puzzles to fix Santa’s broken sleigh, power up the toy factory, and help the elves get back on track—all before the clock runs out!
The adventure doesn’t end there. After saving the day, children will meet the man of the hour himself—Santa Claus—in his enchanting grotto for a photo-op filled with holiday cheer. Then, top it all off with an enchanting stroll down Candy Cane Lane, where sparkling lights and festive cheer await.
Owner and Founder of WeEscape Andrew Keleman said: “I’m so excited to bring a brand new Christmas Experience that Cork has never seen before. I’m always looking to do the next big thing and combining my passion for escape rooms with Christmas is better than I imagined. I can’t wait to see kid’s faces light up when they solve the puzzles.”
Saving Santa brings a new twist to the typical meet and greet Santa experience. Kids are invited along on an adventure with a purpose and a story. The first obstacle they meet is Santa’s broken sleigh.
They must help repair it so Santa can deliver presents in time. Next, the toy factory is broken in Lapland and the elves need help! Get the gears turning again so the elves can get back to work. Each step on this adventure is a step closer to saving Christmas. At the end, children will be rewarded for their bravery by Santa Claus with a medal and certificate.
Although this experience is aimed at families, adults are also welcome to embrace the magic of Christmas and let their imaginations run free. You can even bring your dog along for the adventure. Bookings can accommodate up to 10 people per booking.
