Overview

You will be dashing through the sky on an exhilarating tandem ride, jumping 12,000ft from an aeroplane in a Santa costume!

This incredible challenge promises fun, fear, a rush of adrenaline and the immense feeling of accomplishment, all while raising vital funds to help provide a better future for seriously ill children at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).

Highlights

  • Tandem jump

    You will be attached to a skydiving instructor, jumping from the plane before a parachute glides you back down to earth.

  • Solo or as a team

    You can skydive by yourself or as a team. Each participant must fill out their own registration form, but once booked in, you and your fellow Santas can jump in succession.

  • Santa suit size-up

    Once you have registered to jump, you can order your Santa suit to fit you.

  • On the day

    Jump times are dependent on the weather. Your arrival time at Brackley Airfield will be sent to you in your confirmation email after you have booked.

Jumps are weather dependent, so it's not usually possible to specify a jump time prior to the day.

You will receive an arrival time once you are confirmed with the airfield – this is when you will check in and receive your training for the jump. The jump time would depend on the weather and how many other people are booked in that day. There is a small chance you could wait all day until you jump. The airfields do operate a first come first served basis – so the earlier you arrive the earlier you will jump!
