FAMILY-friendly Santa Claus stage shows are returning to a popular West Midlands attraction this Christmas.

Cadbury World, in Birmingham, is hosting regular shows throughout the day, so that guests can meet Father Christmas before he rounds up his reindeer and flies off to the North Pole.

The show consists of lots of Christmas music, and a sleigh filled with chocolate treats for the 'little helpers' in the audience.

Alongside the return of the Christmas shows, Cadbury World will receive a seasonal makeover, complete with a giant chocolate Christmas tree and the annual Christmas chocolate creation on display. 

Gerrard Baldwin, general manager at Cadbury World, said: “We are so happy to be offering our much-loved Santa stage show at Cadbury World again this year.

"It is a firm favourite with our guests, and we can’t wait to welcome lots of families to enjoy the show and the Cadbury World experience this festive season.”

The Santa stage show begins on Saturday, November 18, and will run on selected dates until Saturday, December 23.

Entry to the Santa stage show is included in a standard Cadbury World admission ticket.
