## About

Santa sets up at Citadel Outlets in Commerce from November 28 through December 23 for family visits and holiday photos. Children can tell Santa their Christmas wishes and pose for pictures, and families can choose between two ways to visit. The walk-up line is complimentary on any day Santa is in: visitors can take photos and videos with their own phone or camera, and professional photo packages are sold on site. A timed reserved photo session that skips the line costs $19.99; the fee is applied in full toward a professional photo package at checkout, with prints ready before leaving. Santa is in on select days with varying hours, as posted on the center's schedule; a reservation is not required to see Santa or to buy photos.
