Low Height Santa's Grotto Hire Nottingham
Bring the magic of Christmas to venues with a low ceiling. Our Low Height Santa's Grotto stands just 7.5ft high on a compact 12ft x 12ft footprint, so it fits comfortably in school halls, nurseries, community centres, function rooms and offices where a standard grotto would be too tall.
It comes with a Santa's chair, red carpet entrance and VIP post and rope queue, giving Santa a festive home for meet & greets, photographs and present giveaways. It's perfect for school Christmas parties, nursery celebrations, staff family events and community Christmas events.
