    The Crescent is popular & I think there is a free one just outside Superquinn in Castletroy

    There is a santa in Thomas Street in Limerick in santa's cabin. Heard good reports about this one.

    Moved from town to Jetland this year. Lots of good reports about it last year.

    Lol, they said to my niece "what do you think of the North Pole?" Said in a Santa voice and she replied "there's load of extension leads". They weren't expecting that.

    Apparently not. He was brilliant and his costume was fantastic. He's not back this year as a lot of people wouldn't pay the €5 for the photo which went to charity and they took their own photo instead.

    If you won't pay €5 for your visit to Santa and a charity benefits 100%, you really can't blame BT.

    FFS! That is ridiculous that people wouldn't pay the fiver for ISPCC. All my Santa photos were from Todds so was hoping to take my child for his first Xmas photo there.

    Anywhere else around that has a fairly decent Santa either in city centre or Dublin Road side

    I've heard the Santa in Delta Adventure Centre on the Ballysimon Rd was good in previous years and the child gets 90 minutes play time after the visit. The toddler area there is really big, with lots for the little guys to do.

    Regional Santas are great especially if you're not the native accent yourself like the Santa on the radio with those eejits after 12 on Todayfm. He had a very definitive north side Dublin accent. How did Santa pick up such an Accent on his travels. :D

    Santa in the city centre in Thomas Street is very good. He gives loads of time to each child. The cost is 10.00 per child including a gift. Photo is 5.00 extra but you can take your own pictures also.

    Went to The Santa Experience in the Jetland, had heard very mixed reviews but we were delighted with it, price is €10 per child including a gift, €2 per adult. Photo is €8 but discounts if you buy more than one but they were also happy to take one with my camera. We hadn't booked so were lucky to get in, booking is advisable.
