Gibraltar Cultural Services (GCS), hosted a Santa’s Grotto event at the John Mackintosh Hall on the 10^th of December, raising funds for GBC Open Day. The event offered children and families the opportunity to meet Father Christmas, creating magical memories for all who attended.

The event was run by staff members, who volunteered their time. Around 150 children visited, with £580 pounds raised.

Santa’s Grotto has become an annual tradition at GCS and is created and decorated by staff. This year the theme was inspired by ‘Candy Cane Land’. The operations team, led by Victor Soiza, were responsible for the creation with staff members adding the decorations, ready for Santa’s visit. Tickets for the event sold out within a day, prompting an extension to the planned time-frame. GCS would like to thank everyone who supported and contributed.
