Santa Claus has officially touched down in Mississauga, and Square One is kicking off the holiday season in the sweetest way possible. The beloved jolly visitor is now welcoming families, friends, and little believers to Gingerbread Lane — a beautifully crafted holiday set filled with candy-themed décor, glowing Christmas trees, and a picture-perfect festive atmosphere.
Visitors can now book their Santa photo sessions, available from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Sundays until December 23. On Christmas Eve, Santa will wrap up his final appearances between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
A variety of photo packages are available, from convenient all-digital downloads to classic printed sets featuring 4×6 and 5×7 prints, along with wallet-sized keepsakes. Whether you’re planning to frame the moment, gift it, or tuck it into a holiday card, there’s something for everyone.
With Santa heading back to the North Pole after Christmas Day, families are encouraged to reserve their preferred time slot before sessions fill up.
Shoppers visiting Square One can also enjoy several other festive attractions, including the Instagram-worthy Simons Holiday Tree and gift card giveaway, as well as the heartwarming Miracle on Main Street toy donation drive.
With hundreds of retailers and seasonal activations throughout the centre, Square One remains one of Mississauga’s top holiday destinations for gifts, memories, and magical moments.
