Christmas Entertainment and Activities
We love Christmas and especially enjoy sharing it with you and your families, so we’ll always make sure it's the most magical experience that gives you that special festive feeling! Here's what you can look forward to this year.
Christmas Eve Magic
It's just one sleep to go, and across the resort, you can feel the magic building as we get closer to the big night! We'll have complimentary entertainment, activities, and pop-up surprises to enjoy throughout the day and to help you get in the spirit of the season, including our annual Goodbye to Santa where we send Father Christmas off on his global journey in style.
Sprinklings of Festive Fun
Various locations, all-day
Expect festive music and Christmas pop-ups across the resort including at The Hive, Serendome, and the Bluestone Village, which will all be transformed into our sparkling Christmasland!
Christmas Eve Parade - Wave Goodbye to Santa
Various locations
Join us for our Christmas Eve parade, as our brilliantly bright bus with glittering convoys in tow makes its way around resort. Being carried behind the bus will be our wonderful brass brand, playing merry tunes! Surrounding the floats will be our team of postal elves delivering as they go.
The parade will make its way through resort before reaching its final destination at the Reindeer Village.
The party will carry on after his departure with live music in the village, where we'll be joined by the legendary Bluestone Elves for a proper festive celebration. Fresh from his workshop in The Hive, Santa Claus will be boarding his Snow Express outside our new indoor adventure zone, before setting out on a trip around the resort. He'll have waves for everyone, as he tours Bluestone, ending his journey at the Village where he'll lead the Christmas Eve celebrations. Santa Claus will need lots of Christmas cheer to send him on his way, so expect carols and general merriment before he sets flight.
Christmas Eve Pub Quiz and Live Music
Knights Tafarn, (Time subject to change please check upon arrival)
The festive celebrations will continue in the Knights Tafarn where the Bluestone Elves will be hosting their annual Christmas Eve quiz. A fun-filled night for all the family, there will also be living music and probably more singing as we celebrate the most magical night of the year.
Christmas Day
The most wonderful day of the year is finally here, and we can’t wait to spend it with you!
Fun-packed Mornings
After opening your presents in your cosy accommodation it's time to enjoy all the wonders of the resort! Head to the Elf Lagoon Water Park for a festive dip (open all morning!). The Nature Trail, and our cycling and walking routes are all open for you to explore too.
A Christmas Feast
Prepare Christmas lunch in your lodge, or join us for a festive feast! You'll find a fully equipped kitchen with more than enough room to prepare a family feast in your lodge. If you'd prefer to sit back and let someone else do the cooking on Christmas Day, then we have limited availability for our Christmas Day Lunch. Sat around the table on the Christmas Day with your loved ones is always special, especially when you're at Bluestone!
Lazy Afternoons
After lunch, we recommend a stroll around the grounds or head to one of Pembrokeshire's beautiful beaches or amble along the Coast Path. The National Park always feels extra-special on Christmas Day and there’s nothing like a ramble on the sand or cliffside to make it a day to remember.
Boxing Day
The fun carries on after Christmas throughout Boxing Day!
Boxing Day Breakfast Buffet
Farmhouse Grill, pre-booking required**
The perfect way to kick off another day of celebrations, our delicious breakfast buffet is packed with mouth-watering breakfast delights that the whole family will enjoy.
Pop-up Surprises and Live Music
Various locations, all-day
There will be pop-up entertainment and activities taking place across the resort as we keep the festive celebrations and party atmosphere going!
Bluestone Merryathon
Resort wide, 10:00am
We know after indulging in candy canes you might not be in mint condition but, if you’re pining for a tremendous laugh, look no further than our Boxing Day Merryathon. A fun run across the resort that's more emphasis on the fun, than run - perfect for blowing out the cobwebs. Can you overcome the weird and wonderful obstacles standing in your way of being a very merry athlete?!
If you're not feeling too energetic, there'll be music and fun in Serendome throughout the day.
Help for Your Stay
Our Guest Services team will be on hand throughout your break to help make your day extra special. As well as helping with any enquiries, we'll also be opening the on-resort shop, Newton Stores, on Christmas Day morning for any last-minute buys!
Even More to Enjoy
