Festive fever has gripped Chester Zoo...
Gone are the reminders of summer and out has come the tinsel and decorations as work has finished on building Santa's Lapland Journey - an integral part of the zoo's annual Frost Fair extravaganza.
A dedicated team has pulled out all the stops to turn the zoo into a magical winter wonderland.
A new line-up has also been revealed for this year's event, which opened on November 27 and runs until January 11. Alongside the ever-popular ice rink there will be a host of entertainment to keep visitors enthralled.
The fun includes the amazing Silver Man who will be entertaining the crowds with fire-juggling and stilt walking during weekends and school holidays, there will be the popular Santa's Lapland Journey, the loveable characters Waddle and Frosty, and a carousel.
