Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 'Kingdom Pass'?

The Kingdom Pass is a vital item you will receive upon signing in. Without it, characters will not interact with you, so be sure to keep it with you throughout the trail.

Are the treats the main focus of the event?

No, while treats are available at occasional stops, the event is not solely sweet-focused. Attendees can choose whether or not to collect treats.

Can I change my ticket time slot?

All ticket sales are final and cannot be changed for a different date or time. If you cannot attend, you can transfer your tickets to another person by emailing the organizer.

What happens if the event is cancelled due to weather?

In the unlikely event of cancellation due to reasons beyond control, the event will be rescheduled for the same time and date in 2023. Refunds are only issued if the event is fully cancelled, not rescheduled.

Is there a specific age recommendation?

The event is aimed at children aged 2 years and upwards. Any child over 24 months requires a ticket.
