We're best known for our award-winning experience, nestled deep within the Crown Estate near Ascot. Seventeen years ago, Mike & Alison Battle founded the event from their own desire to share with their children a place that would celebrate the pure, uncommercialised magic of Christmas. Today, with the expertise of Hollywood set designers, West End actors, and more than a touch of enchantment, we keep the magic of Christmas alive for thousands of children every year.
Lapland celebrates and honours the values, imagination, and wonder of childhood through our magical world, rich storytelling, and immersive memory-making experiences.
This is an exciting period of growth for us as we explore new ways to bring the Lapland experience to a global audience through media, publishing, live shows, and eCommerce channels.
