The popular Pet Photo Night returns to the Simon Santa Photo Experience at Livingston Mall this year. 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. Pet Photo Night at Livingston Mall will be on Sunday, December 11 from 6 to 8 p.m. Guests are asked to bring pets in through the mall entrance next to Dunkin Donuts.

The Simon Santa Photo Experience is again sponsored by The Gymboree Corporation. 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.

The 2016 Simon Santa Photo Experience and Pet Photo Night is also sponsored by Universal Pictures Home Entertainment which is celebrating the highly-anticipated release of “The Secret Life of Pets,” available on Digital HD November 22 and on Blu-ray and DVD December 6. Come visit the Simon Santa Photo Experience and receive a fun-filled activity sheet, a custom The Secret Life of Pets holiday headband, and watch highlights from the movie.

This holiday season, Simon invites everyone to celebrate “The Joy of Giving.” Giving is contagious and this season Simon invites everyone to pass that spirit on and ‘Give Love,’ ‘Give Sparkle,’ ‘Give Warmth,’ and ‘Give Fun.’ Join Simon to experience the season’s good cheer with the best of holiday shopping and entertainment.

Shoppers can enjoy a variety of activities at Livingston Mall, including:

• Guests will be surprised and delighted with treats such as a hot chocolate station, tumblers, entertainment and more (while supplies last) on Black Friday, November 25.
• Join the Simon Kidgits Club on Friday, December 2 from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. at a special event, Welcome Santa at Livingston Mall.

Immediately following at 6:30 p.m., join Princess Elena from Avalor as she waits for Santa to arrive on his fire truck. Guests are invited to take photos with Santa once he arrives. All attendees will receive special photo pricing.
• Savor the sounds of the season with performances December 1 through December 23 in the lower level, Macy’s Court.
• Charity gift wrapping, with proceeds benefitting the American Cancer Society, will be available on the lower level in the Barnes & Noble wing.

Guests to every Simon Photo Experience 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 five years ago, Noerr has collected over $1,000,000 largely due to the generosity of Simon shoppers.
