Michael Bublé is stirring - the most wonderful time of the year is just around the corner, with Westfield announcing that Santa Photography bookings are officially open. 

Santa’s sleigh will be touching down at Westfield centres across Australia and New Zealand from Sunday 12 November 2023, with a wide range of Christmas photography options able to be booked online from today including Sensitive Santa, Auslan Santa, and much-loved Pet Photography. 

Scentre Group General Manager of Marketing and Community, Jacqui Waine, said: “There’s something truly magical about kicking off the festive season with a family photo with Santa.  

“From dressing up the family in their Christmas best, to bringing along four-legged friends; it's a beloved tradition that we’re very proud to be a part of and know our customers look forward to at Westfield. 

“As customers prepare to head into centres for their annual photos, Santa and his helpers have been busy decking the malls and topping up the tinsel. There’s something for everyone during the silly season at Westfield including live entertainment, gift wrapping, holiday workshops and more. We’re delighted to be opening bookings today for our Santa Photography and we’re looking forward to seeing everyone in our centres in the weeks to come.” 

Sitting for an annual Santa photo at Westfield is a memorable experience that more and more people enjoy, with bookings increasing year on year.  Whether families are the first booking on the first day, or last-minute dashers with bribed teenagers in tow, Westfield’s range of Christmas photography enables more customers to experience the magic of Christmas at Westfield centres.  

Santa Claus said: “Christmas is the most magical time of the year, and it’s always wonderful to see both familiar and new families at Westfield creating lovely memories. It’s very special to feel the excitement around the world during the festive season, and I can’t wait to see everyone coming in for their photos this year!”
