This year’s theme is a set highlighting the classic movie Elf
Another Christmas Classic has arrived at the Vancouver Mall.
With more than two weeks left before Christmas, shoppers, parents, and children can get an opportunity to meet Santa Claus on a set highlighting the classic movie Elf.

There is a cutout of Buddy the Elf, a New York City taxi, a city skyline, and even Gimbels department store.
A year ago, the Vancouver Mall had A Christmas Story theme.
This year, it’s all about Buddy, welcoming guests to visit the real Santa.
Santa Claus is available daily from 11 a.m. through Christmas Eve, (noon on Sundays). He does take a break around 3 p.m. each day.
The New York City skyline reaches high but not quite as high as the mall’s Christmas tree.
