While children may dream of Santa and presents, many adults confess that the true highlight of Christmas is the excuse to indulge in chocolate. Cadbury World in Bournville, Birmingham, is catering to both with a series of festive events leading up to the big day.
Young visitors can meet Father Christmas in his grotto, receive a chocolate treat, and enjoy a special production of Jack and the Cocoa Beanstalk – a sweet twist on the classic pantomime. Meanwhile, the rest of the attraction operates as normal, offering everyone the chance to see how iconic chocolate bars are made, including the secret behind the Creme Egg's yolk.
Upon arrival, the scent of chocolate fills the air, and free samples are available. State-of-the-art special effects bring the history of the famous company to life, keeping children engaged. The Cadabra ride gently glides through a chocolate wonderland, complete with singing cocoa beans.
The day concludes at the visitors' shop, stocked with every Cadbury's bar imaginable and exclusive Christmas treats. Visitors are advised to leave space in their bags for purchases. Christmas events run on weekends: December 7/8, 14/15, and 21/22.
