Default Santas Grotto Brisbane

Struggling to find a decent one, or even one at all. Is it just not done over here?

No expert but if you're talking about where a Santa sits in a big chair, sometimes in a xmas setting or whatever, and kids line up for knee sitting and photos then that is done at quite a few places. Not sure if it is as big a deal as back home but it is done.

This any help? http://www.achievesuccess.com.au/chr...a_brisbane.htm

Yep, the Myer one is supposed to be good. We went to see the Myer city window displays last year and had a free train ride - great! Didn't see Santa there though. I usually take the kids to Hardly Normal as they do a free pic (pick up about a week later)and if you want a package they are very reasonable - no grotto though, kids just line up then sit with Santa for their pic.

HTH

Big shopping centres normally have them - pretty sure Chermside would, for example.

We took the kids to the one in Myers in the CBD and the one in Indooroopilly Shopping Centre. Both were pretty good.
