Father Christmas will be wandering around Silcock’s Pier Family Restaurant, Funland and Carousel in Southport every weekend in the run-up to Christmas.
The Santa’s sleigh photo opportunity is part of the Southport Gingerbread Trail, created by Southport BID for families to discover gingerbread characters in locations throughout Southport town centre.
Silcock Leisure Group Operations Manager Serena Silcock-Prince said: “We are delighted to see that Santa’s sleigh has now arrived!
“It’s great to be part of Southport BID’s Gingerbread Trail this year, which is a really fun way for families to explore all that Southport town centre has to offer this November and December.
“We are really looking forward to the Southport Festive Fun Day taking place this Saturday (23rd November 2024), and hope it leads to lots of people coming into town.
“There is a superb line-up of entertainment on offer on Lord Street, and also lots of things to enjoy at locations like Funland, the Pier Restaurant, the Carousel and elsewhere.
“We have made some festive additions to our menu so customers can enjoy mince pies, mulled wine, hot chocolate, Holland’s festive pies, and more.
“You can also come and enjoy rides on our famous Carousel too!
“We are looking forward to seeing all your pictures! It’s something fun for families to do.
“Silcock’s Pier Family Restaurant will be open every weekend in the run-up to Christmas, and every day during the school Christmas holidays except Christmas Day.
