Winter Playland's Sunday 27 December morning session opens its doors at 10:00. The stage begins with warm-up exercises at 10:10, and a magician and ventriloquist puppet show meets the audience between 10:30 and 11:20. The programme carries on through the day with theatre, workshops and concerts, while the play areas and New Year-themed experiences across the festival grounds stay open for the whole session. Winter Playland is a New Year-themed children's festival held on 26-27 December 2026 at the Wyndham Grand Istanbul Kalamis Marina Hotel. Aimed at children aged 1-10 and their families, the programme brings together magic and puppet shows, theatre plays, science workshops and children's concerts on stage. Beyond the stage, workshops, play areas, interactive activities and New Year-themed experiences run all day across the festival grounds. The festival takes place in four separate sessions over two days, morning and evening; tickets are sold through Passo. This page covers only the 27 December morning session; the same day's evening session and the 26 December sessions have their own pages.
