July 2010
Responding to customer feedback, we are excited to announce LaplandUK’s new lower ticket tariffs. Prices have been reduced by 30% by removing food from the inclusive ticket price and from operational savings now that the event will run for only 3 weeks from 4th-24th December.
A shorter event has limited our availability- so early booking is strongly recommended to avoid disappointment!
LaplandUK is delighted to announce that tickets for this year’s magical event will go on sale on July 26th at 10a.m.
The soldier's story
Dec 2009
We were all moved when we received a telegram from a soldier serving in Afghanistan asking Father Christmas to give his wife and son a special hug when they visited LaplandUK as it would be their first Christmas apart.
Inspired by this magic moment, LaplandUK invited 200 families of troops serving in Afghanistan to be our guests and receive special messages from their loved ones overseas delivered by Father Christmas himself. A magical day was enjoyed by all!
We wish all our brave troops and their families a merry Christmas.
