Santa will be arriving at Bass Pro Shop on Saturday, November 5th at 5pm. Enjoy the wonder of Christmas at “Santa’s Wonderland”— a 3,500-square foot Christmas village chocked full of fun games, activities and crafts for the whole family –from November 5th through December 24th at 56 stores nationwide.
November 5th Christmas Season kickoff:
Bass Pro Shops stores will kick off the Christmas season with a special Preview Night Saturday, November 5th from 5 pm to 8 pm. Local children’s groups and choirs will be singing Christmas carols in front of the store and customers will be treated to hot chocolate and cookies. Santa arrives at 5pm in a Tracker® boat pulled by a Toyota Tundra truck.
Kids will be invited to help Santa, through a little magic, light up the outside of the store and a big Christmas tree in the main entrance. Then they can follow Santa into the store for the unveiling of Santa’s Wonderland.
Santa will also be giving away $25 Bass Pro Shops gift cards to one lucky winner every half hour. Kids can kick off the season by coloring stockings and the first 150 kids to visit Santa’s Wonderland will receive a Santa Bandz bracelet! Kids can also get their free photo with Santa that night from 6-8pm.
The village offers an old-time model train area, remote control trucks, a Red Ryder® laser arcade, a soft gun range and slot car racing. Kids can also play the hottest new video games of the season with The Strike™ and The Hunt™. There’s an activity table where they can write a letter to Santa, color and do fun crafts every day of the week. And it’s completely FREE!
Also new this year, a fun Santa Bandz bracelet will be offered every weekday to the first 150 kids who visit Santa’s Wonderland Monday through Friday from 5-7pm (a different style will be offered each week).
Always a family tradition, customers can get a free 4×6 studio-quality photo with Santa from 3pm to 8pm Monday through Friday, Saturday’s 10am to 8pm and Sunday’s noon to 5 pm. Photo and gift packages will also be available. Grab a Bass Pass when the line is long and do your shopping instead of waiting in line – the Bass Pass gives you an appoiment with Santa!
