Families are invited to celebrate the magic of Christmas with Festive Tales at Woodhorn Museum in Ashington.

Starting on Saturday 6 December, Festive Tales runs every weekend throughout the month in the former colliery and mining museum, with extra sessions on December 22, 23 and 24.

The 30-minute group experience includes a cosy festive story time with Father Christmas, the chance for children to share their Christmas wishes, a photo opportunity and an early Christmas gift to take home.

The sessions will run daily at 11am, 12pm and 2pm, with an additional relaxed session at 3pm each day designed for families who prefer a quieter, more informal experience.
