Make Magical Memories at The Simon Experience at Livingston Mall This Holiday Season

Eager children and their families can experience the joy and magic of the holiday season with a visit to the Simon® Santa Photo Experience at Livingston Mall. Children can visit and be photographed with Santa through December 24.

Save time, avoid the line with Santa by Appointment! Now you can reserve your magical moment with Santa online at http://simon.noerrsanta.com.

On Saturday, December 5, children are invited to have Breakfast with Santa. The event will take place in the Food Court at 9:00 a.m. Tickets must be purchased in advance at Guest Services.

The popular Pet Photo Night returns to the Simon Santa Photo Experience at Livingston Mall this year on Sunday, December 6 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Bring your furry friend for the holiday tradition through the mall entrance next to Dunkin Donuts. Please have all pets on a leash or in a crate. Many pet owners view their pet as an integral member of the family and are just as committed in caring for their pets as their “human” family members. Pet Photo nights are hosted after regular mall closing and the set gets an extensive cleaning following the event to remove any potential risk to allergy sufferers. Reservations can be secured at simon.com/petphoto.

The Simon Santa Photo Experience is again sponsored by Gymboree. The Gymboree Corporation is a specialty retailer operating stores selling high-quality apparel and accessories for children under the Gymboree, Gymboree Outlet, Janie and Jack, and Crazy 8 brands. Find Crazy 8 at Livingston Mall on the Upper Level by the Food Court.

The 2015 Simon Santa Photo Experience is also sponsored by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment which is celebrating the highly-anticipated release of “Minions,” available on Digital HD on November 24 and on Blu-ray and DVD December 8. Come visit the Simon Santa Photo Experience and receive a fun-filled activity sheet and custom Minion holiday headband, pose for photos with the colorful Minions standee, and watch highlights from the movie.

Simon’s theme for Holiday 2015 is “Spread Love.” From the love of giving to those who matter, to children’s love of Santa, to celebrating love through holiday festivities with family and friends. Join Simon to experience the season’s good cheer with the best of holiday shopping and entertainment.

On Thanksgiving, when the mall opens at 6 p.m., the first 75 shoppers who visit Guest Services will receive a special gift. On Black Friday, customers will be treated to a complimentary Hot Chocolate Station, while supplies last. There will also be holiday entertainment throughout the weekend and Kidgits members can enjoy a Bounce House on the Lower Level by Macy’s on Saturday, November 28.

Throughout the holiday season shoppers can also engage in a variety of special activities including: Surprise & Delight, Holiday Coat Check near Barnes & Noble, Santa photos, Holiday entertainment, special treats available at Guest Services, Holiday giftwrap presented by Livingston High School Project Graduation, and more.

“One of the great traditions of holiday shopping at Livingston Mall is the annual family visit to the Simon Santa Photo Experience,” said Maria Gregorius, area director of marketing and business development for Livingston Mall. “I know Santa can’t wait to greet children bringing him their holiday wishes.”

Guests to every Noerr set will have another opportunity to share Santa’s heart by making a donation via The Noerr Programs to Save the Children. For nearly 100 years, this non-profit has given underserved children in the U.S. a healthy start, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. Since this program began four years ago, Noerr has collected over $978,000 largely due to the generosity of Simon shoppers. This season, Noerr will pass the $1,000,000 milestone.
