CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Halloween is over and Thanksgiving is on the way, but, as Mariah Carey would say, 'It's *tiiiiiiiimee!*' for many Coastal Bend families to move right on into celebrating the Christmas season.
In an effort to bring more of that holiday cheer to the area, La Palmera Mall is set to host their annual visit from the man in red himself, Santa!
Thousands of guests are expected to attend the free, family-friendly event from 5–8 p.m. starting on Nov. 6.
The festivities will include live music, entertainment, arts and crafts, face painting, balloon twisting and special activities.
Photos with Santa will be available by reservation or walk-up, beginning the evening of Nov. 6 through Tuesday, Dec. 24.
Photo packages start at $34.95 with other items available for purchase. Reserved photo times will be available with a SnapPass, which can be booked online at lapalmera.com.
