About this event
Santa's Grotto at The Foundry on Livesey Branch Road is a Christmas event held indoors at this well-known Blackburn venue. It's a proper festive experience for little ones, with the warmth and character you'd expect from a venue that takes its events seriously. As with any grotto visit, children get the chance to meet Santa in a dedicated indoor setting, away from the cold.
The Foundry is a pub and events venue, so the atmosphere tends to be lively and welcoming, making it a nice outing for the whole family rather than just a quick in-and-out. If you have children with dietary needs or allergies, the venue takes allergen information seriously and asks that you flag any requirements before your visit.
