Santa Claus will be arriving in style at the Forum Algarve shopping centre in Faro on Saturday morning (November 12).
Drawn by “six beautiful Samoyed dogs” on a sleigh, the jolly Yuletide gift-bearer will be making an “unforgettable entrance” at the mall’s Christmas Village at 11am.
The ceremony will mark the start of Forum Algarve’s festive season, which will continue for two months until January 8.
Children and adults will be able to meet Santa, take photos with him at the Christmas Village throughout the festive season, use the mall’s ice rink and take a ride on the Christmas carousel.
