Our Kids Social Xmas Pyjamarama Party at Freight Island, Manchester 15 December 2024 Tickets from £8.50 — Book now

Get ready for the Our Kids Social annual Christmas knees-up on 15 December, this year taking the form of a Xmas Pyjamarama Party! That’s right, this is a party which needs no dressing up. This is all about having cosy, festive fun in your PJs. Just roll out of bed, brush your teeth and hair (if you can be bothered), grab a bag of Christmas spirit and scoff down some cereal, then head down to Freight Island where a fun-loving party awaits.

This one-of-a-kind family event has something for everyone, with exciting activities and entertainment planned throughout the day. For those who love to dance, Queen of Disco, DJ Helen will be spinning familiar festive tunes that’ll even get Grandma on the dance floor. And there’s a silent disco too, as well as circus skills with Hula Hula fun. Learn new tricks as well as watching some spectacular skills.

For budding builders, go and see the Bricklands Lego crew. For youngsters who just love being creative, get involved with the Conker Crew games and activities and festive arts and crafts. This includes a glitter swoosh station, where serious magic happens.

Of course this is a Christmas party so it’s going to get very, very festive. Get involved with the naughty elf trail packed with surprises, and there might even be a visit from the big man dressed in red…

For the tiniest partiers who’ve had enough bobbing up and down to the music, head to the cosy corner where you can sit back on Mum’s lap and chill out to story time.

Festive food and drink are available at the Our Kids’ Social Xmas Pyjamarama Party. A party isn’t a party without tasty treats, especially at Christmas!
