Lovers of Raymond Briggs' classic The Snowman are in for a treat in the run up to Christmas.

The iconic character, as well as his pal the Snowdog, will be visiting Dreamland on Sunday, December 9.

And don't forget to bring your camera as Father Christmas is set to join in the fun too.

The trio will be on site at the park in Margate from midday until 4pm, with priority entry for members at 11am.

It comes as part of Dreamland's packed Christmas schedule, which also features a festive roller rink.

Strap on your skates and enjoy feel good beats every day in December, with the park's resident Frosted FM DJ providing Christmas tunes to spin to from midday and 4pm on December 1, 8, 15, 22 , 23 and 24.

The Roller Diner will become a holiday hangout every day too between midday and 10pm.

Catch a Christmas film or a winter sports screening, play in the Pinball Parlour and games room, or enjoy some mulled wine.

Visitors are also invited to step into a winter wonderland inside a giant snow globe, which is the ideal festive scene to snap a family photo.

Or, you can try your hand at making some Christmas crafts in the woodland lodge on December 1, 2, 8, 9, 15 and 16, and daily from December 22 to 31 from midday to 4pm.
