Christmas funfair to return to Birmingham NEC

Winter Funland, the UK’s largest indoor funfair, is returning to the Midlands for a second year.

The event will be returning to Birmingham NEC Arena from Saturday 10th December to Monday 2nd January 2023.

The 250,000 sq ft space will offer an ice-skating rink, a 2,000 seater Christmas circus show, a full-size fairground and Santa’s Grotto.

Glen Ramsden, Winter Funland Birmingham event manager, said: “2022 has been a tough year for so many people, due to costs rising and we understand many people are finding it difficult. However, if families are looking for a day out to treat the family, and to celebrate the most magical time of the year, in a spectacular way, then Winter Funland is perfect.  It has everything under one roof, for families to enjoy and make some lovely memories.

“The tickets include unlimited time on the rides which has traditional Waltzers and roller coasters and family favourite, the Dodgems, access to the skating rink which is perfect for all the family whether you are a pro or using one of our penguin aides, and the circus which has both classic entertainment with clowns and acrobats, to some more extreme acts – it’s not to be missed.”

Richard Mann, new business sirector, at the NEC, said: “It is great that Winter Funland is returning for a second year and hopefully many more. We were really impressed with the scale of the event last year and the attention to detail, and if families are looking for a magical Christmas event that everyone will enjoy, then Winter Funland is a real treat.”

There are a range of daytime and early evening sessions available. Tickets cost £26 each, or £100 for a family of four, plus a booking fee. Children under three and carers go free but still need tickets.

Grotto visits are £7 per child, including a present and one adult goes free and must be prebooked, along with discounted parking when purchasing tickets.
