The festive season is fast approaching, and Shannon Town Centre is preparing to celebrate in style. Join us on Saturday, 30th November at 2:00 PM for Santa’s grand arrival and the official launch of our Christmas 2025 celebrations. This year’s event promises to be a truly special occasion for families and visitors alike.

Santa’s Grand Arrival

Santa will make his entrance on a miniature electric land train, accompanied by his elves, Elkins, and Snowflake. The celebration will feature three drumming stilt walkers, The Snow Queen, and a spectacular burst of confetti streamersto mark the occasion.

Adding to the festive atmosphere, the Shannon Gospel Choir will perform live carols in the mall, bringing warmth and cheer to the event as we officially open Santa’s Grotto for the season.
