Our Christmas experience takes place outside on a purpose-built path. Therefore sturdy outside footwear such as walking boots or wellington boots will be required with suitable outdoor clothing.

After placing an order you should immediately receive confirmation from Nutley Events for your order and also a separate email from Take Payments for your card transaction. When making an order you will be asked to create an account, you can log back into your account at any time and find details of your order. You can then download your E-ticket if required. You can access your account by going to our website and clicking on the Log into My Account section on the main menu.

Please make sure you have checked your junk box as sometimes your order confirmation can go straight into your junk folder. It is a good idea to save our email address as a contact and then it is less likely that the email will go into your junk or spam. Please save bookings@nutleyevents.co.uk

A temporary roadway is placed down on the slopes to make sure that the ground condition stays good all the time. We ask that care is taken when driving in the car parks and that speed is reduced to 5mph.

We try to get as many cars into our main car park, We do ask you to please park close to the next vehicle as you would in a supermarket or public car park.

Our Christmas Lights experience is an outdoor event. If the weather presents a hazard and risk to safety, any decision to cancel the event will be made by 2 p.m. You will be contacted by email so it is essential that when booking we have all your contact details. We will also post information on the Nutley Farm Events Facebook page so please check this page for any updates before travelling.
If we must cancel any particular session we will inform you of the re-booking process within 24 hours.

Updates on the weather at the farm will be posted on our Facebook site.

If the Christmas experience is cancelled in line with our cancellation policy and ticket holders are not able to attend an alternative night, then a refund will be issued. The transaction fee is not refundable.

You will be able to see the Reindeer at the start and end of the illuminated trail.

Yes, you will be able to purchase reindeer food. Only food purchased from us can be given to the Reindeer. Do NOT bring any food or try to give the Reindeer any other food or carrots. They have very sensitive stomachs and must not be given anything other than what we have provided.

The Reindeer are very sociable and most of the time are always hungry so are keen to feed from you. However, they are animals and will do what they want to, on some occasions they may just lie down or not want to feed and this must be respected even though it may be disappointing.

Please use the bins provided for all rubbish and be particularly careful what you put on the ground in the parking area.
