Children of all ages are invited to attend the event, where it is expected even Santa Claus will take time out his busy schedule to pay a visit. 

Alan O'Brien, the event co-ordinator, said the goal of the event is to "raise as much money as possible for the Guide Dogs while giving a fun and magical experience for the children attending and their families."

"We are hoping to raise around €2000 for the Irish Guide Dogs."

The event takes place at CIT’s Nexus Centre, December 6, from 11am - 3pm. Tickets for the event can be found at www.cit.ie/tickets. For more information go to “Winter Wonderland Cork” on Facebook.
