Santa is Returning to Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery for Christmas 2026.

After the fun and magic of last year's Breakfast with Santa in the beautiful Edwardian Tearooms, Father Christmas is making his return to Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery for an even bigger festive season.

Our full Christmas programme will be revealed soon, but here's a little sneak peek of what's coming...

Breakfast with Santa Returns

Start your festive celebrations with a magical morning in the Edwardian Tearooms.

Enjoy a delicious full cooked breakfast for adults, while little ones tuck into a stack of festive pancakes before meeting Father Christmas himself. Every child will receive a special gift, with plenty of time for photos and making magical Christmas memories together.

New for 2026: Santa's Workshop

Roll up your sleeves and get creative in Santa's Workshop.

Families will enjoy a hands-on Christmas craft activity before stepping into Santa's grotto to meet the main man himself. Share your Christmas wish, capture a special photo, and take home a festive gift to remember your visit.

Spot Santa around Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery

Keep your eyes peeled as you explore the galleries!

Father Christmas will be making surprise appearances throughout the museum during the festive season. If you spot him on one of his walkabouts, be sure to stop for a friendly hello and a festive photo.

Full event details and tickets will be available soon.
