Experience a living nativity at Maidstone’s Kent Life this Christmas.

The working farm in Sandling has teamed up with the local church to take visitors on a journey of scenes from the nativity story.

Kent Life’s farm animals will be incorporated into the tableaux, and visitors can join in with traditional Christmas carols as they travel around the attraction.

“All the children are encouraged to dress up and be part of the nativity,” said Kent Life’s Sarah Hirsch.

“If you need a bit of inspiration, we could always use more angels, wise men, guards and farmyard animals. And if you’re feeling really imaginative, we’d love to have a camel!”

The nativity begins at 3pm on Sunday, December 15. Kent Life will be open from 10am with last admissions at 2pm. The indoor play area will stay open until 4.30pm.

Admission to Kent Life is £5 for adults, £4 for concessions and £3 for children, free for under-threes. The nativity is included in the price. Call 01622 763936.
