Santa’s Grotto first day fun! Still more to come!
The first afternoon at Santa’s Grotto by the pier was an amazing success. Said Friends of Bangor Garth Pier Chair Avril Wayte “What an amazing afternoon, full of Christmas cheer. Santa and his elves were on fine form. We had 47 children plus their parents visiting today.” In addition, some of the places were sponsored to enable children and families who might not otherwise be able to afford to see Santa to enjoy a visit to the grotto. “We are very grateful to Bangor Saints Football Club and Bangor Cathedral for sponsoring another 17 places on top of yesterday’s sponsors. What an amazing community we have in Bangor!! DIOLCH THANK YOU!” added Avril. Santa’s Grotto will be open on the weekends leading up to Christmas on 14th & 15th December and the 21stand 22nd December. To book a slot visit the Entrance Kiosk or check out our FBGP Facebook group page.

Why not visit the pier this Bank Holiday weekend for a peaceful stroll or for some family fun. Recently mentioned in the Daily Telegraph's "Greatest Seaside Piers in the UK," it's one of only seven Grade II* listed piers in the country. And although Bangor Garth Pier did not make the top 10, it was featured as one of the top rated on Tripadvisor with its stunning views and rich history.⭐ 🌊🗻
