Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Book tickets in advance as this is a sell-out, advance-ticket-only event with no tickets available on the day.
- Consider purchasing grandstand seats in advance for the best view of the arena entertainment, as they are limited and sell out quickly.
- Bring ear protection, as the noise from the monster trucks and dragsters can be very loud; it is also available for purchase on-site.
- If using a Sat Nav to reach Santa Pod from the north via the A6, follow the directions to come off at Wymington, as Sat Navs can be unreliable in this area.
- The event is an all-weather attraction, so plan for various weather conditions and dress accordingly.
