Santa will be in Victoria Court, near Pandora and the Ask Me Point desk, from 10am to 4pm, with his sleigh parked and ready for photos.
The sleigh is wheelchair accessible, ensuring the experience is inclusive for everyone.
Saturday 6 and Saturday 13 December
On these dates, Santa will be driven around The Mall by his elf, meeting shoppers and spreading Christmas cheer between 11am and 4pm.
There will be three one-hour drives and meet-and-greet sessions at 11am, 1pm, and 3pm, giving plenty of chances to say hello and take a festive photo.
Free festive fun for all
This event is completely free, and families are encouraged to come along, join in the celebrations, and make special memories.
A spokesperson for The Mall said:
“We want every child – and adult – to have the chance to meet Santa this Christmas. It’s one of the highlights of our year and a fantastic way to spread festive cheer across the town centre.”
