Five Christmas experiences you can still book for the festive season

Some events are already sold out but if you want to book a family day out or a visit to Mr Claus, there are still plenty to choose from

Santa's Magical Cabin has venues in Cork, Limerick, Dublin, Ennis and Portlaoise.

With less than 45 days to December 25, it seems planning for Christmas 2022 is well underway with slots for many of the annual traditions and activities already starting to fill up.

Some events, including Tayto Park's Christmas Experience, are now completely sold out while popular weekend dates are hard to come by for others.
