Santa sculpture Mr Kriss will light up the Barbican during December

Mr Kriss, the UK’s largest illuminated Santa sculpture, is visiting Plymouth’s waterfront this Christmas and will be situated in The Parade, outside Bonne Sante and Rockets and Rascals, for the whole of December.

Mr Kriss is five metres high and five metres wide and adorned with over 10,000 lights bringing festive cheer to everyone who sees him. Visitors of all ages will be able to get up close and personal with Mr Kriss to take photos and ‘Santa Selfies’.

Jon Walton, chief executive of Plymouth Waterfront Partnership said:

“Mr Kriss is going to add even more sparkle to the Barbican and waterfront this Christmas. He’ll be visiting Plymouth from the end of November and be here until the end of December. We can’t wait to see the ‘Santa Selfies’ and photos that visitors take with him. We’d encourage anyone coming to see Mr Kriss to take some time to explore the rest of the Barbican and waterfront whilst they’re here – to support our many local businesses, cafes, restaurants and shops and soak up the festive spirit in our historic quarter.”

Visiting is free and children are reminded to take their letters for Santa when visiting the Barbican as there will be a giant three metre tall post box next to Mr Kriss with a special light show to let everyone know the letter is on its way to Santa.
