Chapter One · Santa Square
A small square,
with a big story.
In that square, Santa imagined a gift bazaar, a funfair, lakeside lounges, and a stage that brings voices and hearts together. He chose a name for his story: SANTA SQUARE.
On 15 December 2026, Santa Square opens its doors in Kirkuk Governorate. Nine experiences bring together flavors, shopping, play, and evenings out as we write a winter chapter with family and friends.
