Tampa's got a ton of holiday events coming up throughout these next few months perfect for adults and kids alike. One thing that almost seems requisite for a Christmas-celebrating family with small children is a trip to go see Santa. In addition to a number of other family friendly holiday attractions, International Plaza will host Santa from now until December 24.
Santa will be available during mall hours during these days. Holiday mall hours are as follows...
Monday - Friday: 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Saturday: 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Sunday: 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
There will also be a professional photographer on hand to capture your child's moment with St. Nick.
In addition to appearances from Santa, International Plaza will also be transformed into a winter wonderland complete with a soaring 22' dome, a magical snow and light show, as well as amazing polar footage from BBC's Planet Earth.
A costumed Ice Princess will also visit the Ice Palace every Friday through Sunday during the holiday season. Kids can take pictures with the Ice Princess at her Ice Throne as well as take part in princess or prince face painting every Saturday from 1 to 5 p.m. Best of all, face painting is completely free.
And, if you've got a pet, you can bring them in for pet photos with Santa on December 4th and 11th from 8 to 9:45 a.m. in the Grand Court. All pets must be on a leash or in a lightweight cage with a harness and must be up to date with all their shots.
If any of these events seem interesting, head out to International Plaza this holiday season and experience all the great holiday happenings they have to offer. For more information, visit the International Plaza holidays page.
