Oh you better watch out and you better be good for goodness sake because Santa Claus is coming to town.

And excitement will reach fever pitch when his sleigh touches down in the car park of Killarney Outlet Centre which is one of big man’s favourite places in the lead up to Christmas every year.

He has made his list. He has checked it twice. And the great news is that a visit to Killarney is right there at the very top of his priorities.

Even better news is that there will be no charge to meet and greet Santa, no booking is necessary and there will be an opportunity to take a selfie as a souvenir of the great occasion.
Families are encouraged to bring their own cameras to capture the moment.

They are assured that there will be gifts galore in the local stores at fabulous prices and all under one roof during their visit and centre gift vouchers will be available for use in all stores.

“We are absolutely delighted that Santa accepted our invitation to spend every Saturday and Sunday afternoon with us between now and Christmas because we know just how busy he must be at this time of the year,” said centre manager Paul Sherry.

“Luckily, he is very familiar with just how magical the town is at this time of the year so he was only too delighted to get a chance to meet all the boys and girls and their families and friends,” he added.

Children and the young at heart will have a golden opportunity to meet and greet Santa in his cosy corner at Killarney Outlet Centre from 1.00pm to 5.00pm on the following dates:
• Saturday/Sunday, November 29/30
• Saturday/Sunday, December 6/7
• Saturday/Sunday, December 13/14
• Saturday/Sunday, December 20/21
