Candy Cane Lane Opens at Castlepoint

Visitors to Castlepoint Shopping Park in Bournemouth are in for a festive treat this winter as Candy Cane Lane - The Gingerbread Grotto opens for twelve magical days from Saturday 22 November.

The Bournemouth shopping destination will be transformed into a Christmas wonderland, filled with twinkling lights, festive music, and the sweet scent of gingerbread. Running every weekend until Sunday 21 December, with two final dates on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 December, the event promises to be a highlight of this year’s Bournemouth Christmas celebrations.

Families will step into a world of festive fun, from a magnetic Christmas tree waiting to be decorated, to a talking gingerbread man inside a snow globe. The interactive experience concludes with a visit to Father Christmas inside his cosy, candy-scented cabin, surrounded by glowing lights and wrapped presents, where each child will receive a special keepsake gift to remember their visit.

Following the success of last year’s Christmas experience, Candy Cane Lane at Castlepoint brings a new gingerbread-themed twist to a beloved festive tradition, creating nostalgia for parents and magical memories for children.

Candy Cane Lane - The Gingerbread Grotto will be open on selected dates between 22 November and 23 December 2025.
