It is taking place on December 7 between 10am and 3pm.

In a significant move since the pandemic, no pre-booking or tickets are needed for entry this year. We extend an open invitation to families to join us on the day and partake in the festivities.

Here's a glimpse of the fantastic activities* lined up to get you into the holiday spirit:

  •  Thrilling festive fairground rides
  •  All-day live entertainment, including carol singing
  •  A meet and greet with Santa and his elves
  •  Assorted Craft Activities
  • Tempting refreshments and seasonal snacks
  • And so much more!

 One thing that everyone looks forward to each year at Burnley College's Winter Wonderland is the unforgettable festive panto.

This year will see ‘Sleeping Beauty’ performed by our talented Performing Arts and Dance Students. Tickets are essential and cost just £10 per adult and £5 for children and need to be booked in advance at www.burnley.ac.uk/whats-on.

Burnley College principal Karen Buchanan said: “Winter Wonderland has been a highlight of the region’s festive calendar for many years now. We’re delighted the event is returning for 2024 and can’t wait to welcome families to our amazing Campus which will be transformed for the day.
