Santa Claus will arrive at Muncie Mall at 5 p.m. Friday to kick off the holiday season.

An Ice Queen and Ice Princess and the trusty sidekick will make a special appearance on Friday and will lead the crowd in a rendition of “Let It Go” from the Disney movie “Frozen” before Santa makes his grand entrance.

Kids can interact with these characters during the event and get their pictures taken with Santa. Small gifts will be presented to the first 200 children in line to meet Santa.

Santa will be at the mall to meet with kids Nov. 14-Dec. 24.

In addition, the mall will host Caring Santa, a private photo session exclusively for families of children with special needs, 8:30-10 a.m. Dec. 6, when families will have the opportunity to visit with Santa for photos in a calm, welcoming environment before the mall is open to regular guests.
