Be Present for the Fun at Eastgate Shopping Centre

This December, Eastgate Shopping Centre invites visitors to immerse themselves in the festive spirit with a vibrant holiday experience aptly themed “Be Present for the Fun.” From 1 – 24 December, the centre will transform into a festive wonderland, offering endless entertainment and memorable activities for families, ensuring there’s magic around every corner.

What To Expect at Eastgate’s “Be Present for The Fun” Experience?

Meet and Shop your Favourite Characters

From 12 – 16 December, children can explore the Ackermans Character Shop in the Strelitzia Court, a delightful space packed with fun experiences. Young visitors will be able to enjoy activities from Barbie, Spiderman, Batman and Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
Following this, from 17 – 23 December, Cartoonito will bring the festive spirit alive with the Batwheels activation, where shoppers can enjoy remote-control car racing, arts and crafts activities, and appearances from their favourite Cartoonito characters.

Festive Parade

From 16 – 22 December, Eastgate will come to life with a daily Christmas Parade. Featuring a marching band, ballerinas, dancers and aerial acts, the parade will take place at 4PM and 6 PM each day. This delightful mobile spectacle will move through the centre, culminating in an extraordinary aerial performance on the outdoor piazza.

Santa’s Post Box and Photos with Santa

Children who are eager to share their holiday wishes can now send their requests directly to the north pole in the special “Letters to Santa” post box that will be stationed next to the Disney Tree outside Krispy Kreme on the upper level from 2 – 20 December. Then, Santa himself will be arriving for photos from 6 – 24 December on the lower level near Edgars, giving families the opportunity to capture special memories.
