Santa's arrival at Mall at Millenia

Celebrate Santa's arrival on Nov. 16 at 6pm.

The outdoor scene for the special effects production show is pure fancy with a light show, pyrotechnics, and snowflakes falling from the sky.

A DJ ignites the fun with an energetic dance party and stage show, while a full cast of strolling performers provide non-stop entertainment, from stilt walkers and magicians to Mrs. Claus, the elves, and an array of Hollyville characters. Hollyville will come to life as Tommy the Snow Sweep, Madame Crystal, Peppermint and Flurrie delight everyone in the family.

At 6:45 pm, all eyes look to the skies to catch the rooftop arrival of Santa in a magical, enlightening moment.

At the evening’s end, everyone can say hello to Santa starting at 7:30 pm in Grand Court.

Oh I was just looking at the pictures from last year, they do it so nice.

Looking forward to our annual Xmas trip to the Mall (You know who is not though);)

Just marked that in the diary. Thank you Rosie. Shopping combined with Santa...what fun[xmas1]and then Cheesecake [high5]

Here are a couple of pics of Santa's arrival and his Grand Court.

He appeared in a puff of smoke on the roof of The Cheesecake Factory, then disappeared only to emerge from a large present in front of the Mall. There were fireworks and snow flakes and a great DJ who was entertaining the children for an hour or so before Santa arrived.

Santa's Grand Court is fabulous and worth a visit just to see the spectacle of it all. The Mall, as always, is beautifully decorated.

Great pictures Rosie, wish I was there[msncry]

oh how fabulous!!!! wish we were there always something magical about father christmas in florida!! i was like a kid again when Lauren then aged 7 sat on his lap at universal i think it was:D[xmas2]

Although I love visiting the Mall and seeing the deccies, I do wish they would leave it till after Thanksgiving.

We went to Las Vegas a couple of weeks back, and the christmas decorations and music was is Macy's there, speaking to the assistant, she mentioned to her friend, can't they change the music I am already fed up of it. I then said why don't they wait til after Thanksgiving, she said they did about 3 years ago, but it seems to have merged into it now.

I love visiting the different places in the US for the christmas fesitivities, I find the UK very boring, not very much [msnsmile2]christmas spirit, and the queues for buying presents etc, even food in Asda's is a nightmare, But I always :Dwhen in Florida, Maybe its the sun.[msnwink]

Having been in Florida for Christmas last year I was able to see the Mall all "dressed" for Christmas.

thanks Rosie, brings back lovely memories of our Floridian Christmas.

Beautiful Rosie, many thanks for posting :) I sure wish I had been there last night[msnwink]

And the meal in the Cheesecake Factory afterwards finished the evening off beautifully[chatter][chatter]
