Meet Santa in his Grotto
21 November 2015 00:00 - 23 December 2015 00:00
Guildhall Shopping Centre
Children visiting Santa's Grotto in the Guildhall Shopping Centre this year, will be treated to a dazzling festive experience.
Thanks to a partnership between the Guildhall Shopping Centre, the Stafford Town Centre Partnership and the Staffordshire Newsletter visitors will be able to visit to Santa and see a festive woodland scene with frosted trees, illuminated reindeer and birds.
Children can deliver their Christmas wish-list in person to Santa or they can post their letters in the 'special delivery' big red post box. Every child visiting the Grotto will receive a small free gift from Santa.
Thanks to the team at the Staffordshire Newsletter there will be the opportunity for children to have a photograph taken with Santa. Special tokens will be printed in the Staffordshire Newsletter from Thursday, November 19 to Thursday, December 3 inclusive; anyone presenting a token will be eligible to have a free photograph taken. Don’t worry if you miss the token, the Staffordshire Newsletter can be purchased from Santa’s Grotto on the day. The first 300 pictures on a first come first served basis will be featured in a festive supplement that will appear in the Staffordshire Newsletter on Thursday, December 10.
There will also be the opportunity to purchase a 6 x 4 photograph for just £5 including frame and postage. Our photographer will be in the Centre on the following dates, to capture the children’s visit to see Santa.
