Take an “Elfie” with Santa at The Gardens Mall

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – Santa Claus is coming to town! Kick off the jolliest time of the year with a parade to welcome Ole Saint Nick to The Gardens Mall on Friday, November 16.

At 6 p.m., the Palm Beach Gardens High School Marching Band will escort Santa to the Enchanted Garden in the Grand Court. You’ll feel the warmth of the season as you sip hot cocoa from the chocolate bar, mingle with holiday characters, and enjoy activities and giveaways from multiple retailers. Starting at 6:30 p.m., you can whisper your wish list into Santa’s ear and get your photo taken (or even snap a selfie!).

Good girls and boys can bypass the lines and get VIP access with Santa’s FastPass. Purchase your FastPass online and you can select the day you want to visit Santa and pay for your photo package in advance. FastPass is available from November 17 to December 21.

“Our stores have the latest and greatest gift ideas for everyone on your list,” said Whitney Pettis, Director of Merchant Relations and Events at The Gardens Mall. “At The Gardens Mall, we want to provide a single location where guests can purchase a variety of gifts and stocking stuffers, while enjoying the excitement of the holidays.”

Jingle your way into the joy of the holiday season starting with Santa’s arrival!
