A VISIT to Santa is something children look forward to all around the country and new guidelines have paved the way for the magical moment to happen. Fáilte Ireland has drawn up the new guidelines outlining how Santa visits can go ahead safely and, as expected, there will be some changes this year because of Covid-19. The new Fáilte Ireland guidelines are geared towards facilitating some of the bigger Santa Experience events around the country, rather than shop grottos, a source told Independent.ie. It is also recommended that one family, household or support bubble are permitted entry to an experience at one time. The advice is that protective screens should be installed in locations where physical distancing cannot be maintained and contactless payments will be encouraged where possible.
