Santa Claus has confirmed he will be bringing his sleigh back to Kilmarnock later this month.

Taking time out between making his list and checking it twice, Santa will be visiting neighbourhoods across Kilmarnock from Friday, December 13 to Friday, December 20.

Aiming to “spread joy and festive cheer” ahead of the big day, Santa and his elves are also collecting donations for the Night Before Christmas Campaign.

Mr Claus is also looking forward to seeing photos from his visit and the Kilmarnock Santa Sleigh team have asked for festive moments from Santa’s tour to be shared with them using the hashtag #KilmarnockSantaSleigh on social media.

Starting at Whisky Estate, Altonhill and Longpark on December 13, Santa will then head to Southcraig and surrounding areas on December 16 before visiting Bellfield and Shortlees on December 17.

On December 18, Santa will take his sleigh round Wardneuk and Onthank before visiting New Farm on December 19 and rounding off his visit to Kilmarnock with a trip round Gragieston, Moorfield, Annandale and Fardalehill on December 20.

Posting on Facebook, the Kilmarnock Santa Sleigh team said: “Santa’s Sleigh is coming to Kilmarnock. Ho, ho, ho, get ready, Kilmarnock.

“Santa and his magical sleigh are on their way to spread joy and festive cheer across our brilliant town.

“Make sure to mark your calendars and gather your family and friends for this magical experience. As Santa and his sleigh make their way through Kilmarnock, he is also collecting donations for the Night Before Christmas Campaign.

“Your generous contributions will help bring joy and essential support to families in need during the Christmas season.

“Don’t forget to snap some photos and share your festive moments with us using the hashtag #KilmarnockSantaSleigh.

“Wishing everyone a joyful and safe festive season.”
