Sunvalley Shopping Center in Concord is rolling out a full lineup of festive holiday events, offering magical experiences for visitors of all ages. This year’s celebrations include the return of Santa’s Flight Academy with its interactive photo opportunities, a variety of seasonal activities for families and shoppers, and a unique holiday shopping atmosphere designed to bring joy throughout the season. With dazzling décor and engaging attractions, the center aims to make every visit feel special.
“Bringing back beloved holiday events and creating a truly magical experience for our visitors is the highlight of the year,” said Luther Daniel, General Manager of Sunvalley Shopping Center. “We’re excited to welcome shoppers with the spirit of holiday traditions along with a few new surprises. There’s something for everyone to enjoy this year.”
Santa’s Flight Academy will once again be featured in the Grand Court, running through December 24 with hours that vary by day. Visitors can reserve their time to meet Santa for a photo and then continue the adventure at the Flight Academy, which includes a 22-foot-tall sleigh and a snowfall experience.
The center will also host special themed events throughout the season. Santa Paws will be held on November 30 from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m., giving guests the chance to bring their pets for holiday photos with Santa. Sensory Santa returns on December 7 from 9:00 to 10:30 a.m., offering a calmer, more supportive environment for children with sensory sensitivities. During this private photo session, lights and music will be lowered to create a soothing setting. The event is presented in partnership with Autism Speaks.
Sunvalley Shopping Center invites the community to celebrate the season and enjoy its festive offerings. More information about the full schedule of holiday events can be found on the center’s website.
