Free Family Fun at Markeaton Park This Weekend

Published: 1 December 2022

The fantastic free Family Festivities is returning to Markeaton Park on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 December, featuring live music, walkabout acts, a craft fair and an outdoor market.

Visitors will be able to enjoy festive food, meet our friendly characters, post a letter to Father Christmas and join the free Elf Trail. Find the hidden elf houses around the park and solve the festive puzzle for a chance to win tickets to Aladdin at Derby Arena.

You can even bring your four-legged friend to meet Father Christmas at Santa’s Grotto for Dogs. The event, open from 11am until 3pm, is also the perfect opportunity for some Christmas shopping at Markeaton Craft Village.
