It’s that time of the year again.
Christmas magic kicks off in Liffey Valley Shopping Centre on Saturday 16th November, with the grand arrival of Santa Claus. Bringing festive cheer to all, Santa will switch on the Christmas lights in the Centre and officially open his enchanting Grotto where he’ll meet young visitors daily, right up to Christmas Eve*.
This FREE event invites shoppers to enjoy a day of festive fun, face painting and live entertainment from 1pm. Highlights for Santa’s Arrival Day: Santa’s Grand Arrival and Christmas Light Switch-on: The most anticipated event of the year.
Santa will light up Liffey Valley at 4pm on Saturday 16th November, followed by the opening of Santa’s Grotto, where he’ll be available to meet little visitors and hear their Christmas wishes until 24th December.
Live Entertainment & Festive Activities: Santa will be greeted with magical live performances, face painting and arts and crafts to get everyone in the festive spirit! Liffey Valley is once again proudly partnering with Little Blue Heroes, a foundation led by members of An Garda Síochána, supporting families of children with serious illnesses in the local community.
One special child will be granted the wish of becoming an Honorary Garda for the day, giving Santa a special Garda escort to his Grotto on arrival.
Commenting on Santa’s arrival to Liffey Valley, Denis O’Connell, Centre Director at Liffey Valley Shopping Centre, said; “Christmas is always such a special time at Liffey Valley Shopping Centre, and we’re thrilled to welcome Santa and his team of dedicated elves back for a magical season.
We’ve curated a wonderful line-up of entertainment and activities to make this Christmas unforgettable for families and our local community.” With over 80 stores and 20 dining experiences for festive gifting and seasonal meetups, Liffey Valley is the ultimate retail and leisure destination this Christmas.
