The festive season has well and truly arrived at Lakeside Square Pakenham with Santa and his elves ready to spread the Christmas cheer.
It all kicks off on Saturday 9 December with children invited to get their creativity flowing by either writing a letter or drawing a picture for Santa before the shopping centre mails them directly to the North Pole.
In this free activity, all participants will receive a reply from Mr Claus in time for Christmas.
The Christmas celebrations continue on Saturday 16 December with shoppers invited to welcome Santa, his musical elves and Frosty the Snowman in the Lakeside Square Christmas parade.
Guests will even get the chance to meet and snap a selfie with Santa himself and recieve some free face painting.
From 11am to 2pm, Santa will be at the centre with his elves ready to snap a photo with customers on their phones or cameras and will even be handing out some sweet treats to everyone he meets.
