Santa at the Tenement House: A Glasgow Tenement Christmas

Back by popular demand — Santa loved his wee trip to Glasgow so much last year that he's making a return visit to the Tenement House... but only for three magical days!

Santa at the Tenement House: A Glasgow Tenement Christmas

About Santa at the Tenement House: A Glasgow Tenement Christmas

This is the real deal: cosy, traditional, and filled with Glasgow charm. Step inside Agnes’ parlour and let the magic happen as you make memories!

Here’s what’s in store:

Write Your Letter to Santa

Our North Pole-approved stationery will be ready and waiting for the kids to pen their Christmas wishes. Add a touch of Glasgow banter — it always makes Santa smile! You can then hand Santa your letter.

Meet & Snap a Selfie with Santa
Head into Agnes’ parlour, meet the big man himself, and capture a festive photo to treasure. Each child will also receive a small gift from Santa. This is a one-family-at-a-time experience -we know it's a big moment, and we will make sure you have a good chat with Santa. Please email our Elf team at tenementhouse@nts.org.uk if you want to give us details of your party ahead of the visit, or if you have any other special requirements.

Festive Crafts
Kids (3+) can get stuck into some Christmas crafts, making wee treasures to take home. Even the littlest ones are welcome to join the fun.

Café & Shop Open
Enjoy a hot drink and festive treat in our café, and pick up unique gifts in the shop — perfect for spreading Christmas cheer.

A Christmas That Gives Back
By joining us, you’re not just giving your little ones a magical day — you’re helping to protect and care for the Tenement House. Every penny raised goes straight back into the conservation work of the National Trust for Scotland, keeping this beloved piece of Glasgow’s story alive for generations to come.


Three days only. Spaces are limited. Don’t miss the chance to be part of a Glasgow Christmas that’s full of heart, history, and a wee bit of magic.
