Chandler Fashion Center and Scottsdale Fashion Square introduces a thoroughly modern, extraordinarily experiential visit with Santa C — the new Santa HQ, presented by HGTV.
Set to open on November 8th at Chandler Fashion Center and November 15th at Scottsdale Fashion Square, HGTV’s Santa HQ invites families to experience the unparalleled wonder of Santa’s world in the modern and digital age. Visitors can take an ELFIE selfie and star in their own holiday video, explore Santa’s Observatory using ELF-RAY Vision, test out the ‘Naughty O’ Nice Meter,’ and enjoy a memorable photo with Santa. Consumers can also plan ahead this year by booking a reservation online at www.Santa-HQ.com to the experience easier than ever to enjoy.
Santa HQ also features “Sleigh Ride” – a featured track on the recently-released Pentatonix holiday album, That’s Christmas To Me – as part of the experience’s light show. That’s Christmas To Me is available in stores and online, and will be available to those visiting Santa at Chandler Fashion Center and Scottsdale Fashion Square throughout the holiday season.
The two shopping centers also invites our guests to enter the HGTV Home for the Holidays Sweepstakes for a chance to win $10,000. The sweepstakes is scheduled to begin on November 11, 2014. To see how they can enter, guests of Santa HQ centers can text “santahq” to 36500 to be directed to www.santa-hq.com, or they can enter at Guest Services.
Visitors to Santa HQ can expect a jingle-filled sensory overload, in which the sights and sounds of the season will be up front and personal. The striking set was handcrafted in Atlanta where Santa’s HGTV elves were hard at work designing the new environment for the local shoppers.
“Our goal at these two centers is to enhance the customer experience in every way possible, and we are delighted to have a partner like HGTV that shares our passion about delivering exciting opportunities guests can’t find anywhere else, “ said Kimberly Hastings, Macerich. “Visits and photos with Santa at the mall are a well-loved holiday tradition, and this year we are enhancing the entire experience with Santa HQ.”
