Meeting Santa at Mayfair Christmas Market
Novikov Restaurant & Bar says there will be a visit from Father Christmas (listed as "Santa and his reindeer (special guests)") at the 2026 event, but had not published its dates, times or price when we checked. Place given: at the market on Mayfair Place. This is a visit from Santa with a live reindeer for photos, not a grotto; no day or time is given.

Getting There and Parking
By Train
Green Park is the nearest Underground station, on the Jubilee, Piccadilly and Victoria lines in Zone 1. Its address is on Piccadilly, and Mayfair Place is just behind it: well under 100 metres in a straight line by our map coordinates, which are approximate for so short a street. TfL lists lifts among the station's facilities. The organiser's own FAQ points visitors to Green Park Underground station for the nearest toilets, although TfL's station page does not list toilets among its facilities, so do not count on them.

Parking
Neither the organiser nor TfL publishes parking or driving advice for this market. Westminster City Council says it runs no off-street car parks, which are all operated by private companies. Its kerbside pay-to-park bays, including those in zone E (Mayfair and St James's), are paid for by app or phone, priced by the vehicle's emissions and usually limited to four hours. TfL's Congestion Charge is £18 a day (read October 2026) for driving in the zone between 7am and 6pm on weekdays and 12 noon and 6pm at weekends; TfL's postcode checker shows whether an address is inside it. With a Tube station a few steps away, public transport is the simpler choice.

Accessibility
The organiser's FAQ says the market is on the street and open to all visitors, and recommends coming at lunchtime for more room to move around. It says there is a seating area. It gives no detail on kerbs, surfaces or accessible toilets, and says only that the nearest toilets are in Green Park Underground station. TfL lists lifts among that station's facilities. The FAQ is an undated sheet linked from the 2026 market page, so treat it as a guide and ask the restaurant if you need to be sure.

Quiet Times to Visit
The organiser recommends lunchtime for more space and warns that the event can become very crowded. The market opens at 11am each day. A DJ warm-up starts at 5pm and the DJ sets run from 6pm to 9pm, which suggests the evenings are the busiest part of the day, though the organiser does not say so in as many words.
