If your pet pooch has always dreamt of riding the Wicksteed Park train, this Christmas why not make their wish come true. At 3pm on November 30, the train will be departing from “Woofsteed” station for a special dog-friendly journey, so not why grab your ticket to ride! Tickets are £3 per human. Head on over to the Garden Café after your journey and treat your special furry friend to a puppacino to round off the festive fun.
Wicksteed Park director Kelly Richardson said: “We have been working extra hard to create an amazing and memorable festive experience featuring many of the unique aspects of the park, such as the pavilion and the train.
“We are delighted that we have something for everyone – even people’s pet dog!”
