It’s starting to look a lot like Christmas in Belfast City Centre as Santa’s Post Office, brought to you by Belfast One Christmas Days, opens its doors at 2 Royal Avenue on 19th November until 23rd December.

Little ones can join Santa’s elves, provided by c21 Theatre Company, in the magical post office, where they will enjoy free activities such as arts and crafts and design their own special letter to Santa Claus.

To make sure the mail reaches the North Pole in time, all letters can be posted in Santa’s special post box.

"This is a free event for families and is also a fantastic opportunity to see a range of activities from Belfast One businesses planned to encourage people to shop, visit and experience Belfast City Centre this Christmas. It really is a magical time of the year!"
