When To See Santa At The King of Prussia Mall

With Halloween past, the countdown for Santa's arrival to the King of Prussia Mall is on.

Santa will officially arrive on Friday, November 4.

Santa will be available from noon to 3 p.m. on Saturday in the Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's Courts.

Guests can save time and avoid the line with Santa by Appointment, a new feature from Simon, the owner of the Montgomery and King of Prussia malls. Reserve online at simon.noerrsanta.com.

Simon has issued the following tips to help guests "enjoy a jolly photo with Santa":

• Visit Santa early in the season, as lines become longer as Christmas nears.
• For best results, select an outfit color that will work well against the backdrop of Santa’s red suit. Green, silver, white and gold are festive and bright shades for the holiday season.
• If your child doesn’t care to sit on Santa’s lap, there is additional seating that can be arranged so he / she may sit next to him.
• If Santa is not in his chair when you arrive, explain to your children that he needed to take a quick break to go feed the reindeer.

Enjoy the magic. A visit to Santa is a lifelong memory you will have with your child.

The mall is located on 160 North Gulph Road in King of Prussia.
