Cherry Hill going virtual for 2020 holiday photos
Cherry Hill Programs announced its expansion into the virtual technology sector for holiday photos for the first time since its inception. The legacy brand has launched “Create Holiday Magic,” tailored specifically around the current COVID-19 pandemic, to help families keep their holiday traditions alive, the company said. Beginning on Nov. 6, 2020, Santa can connect with children and families all over via personalized Zoom video calls, arranged through CHP, as part of its 2020 “Holiday Magic Traditions” package.
This V.I.P. package also includes a premium holiday traditions gift box, unlimited access to photos with Santa, unlimited access to pet photos with Santa, on-demand video storytime with Santa, a letter from Mrs. Claus and her secret cookie recipe kit, and much more. Additional, lower-tiered, experience packages are also available for purchase starting at $9.99. CHP also offers two free trials this year, guests have access to try “My Photo with Santa” and “Pet Photo with Santa” for free or upgrade to a premium license for unlimited photo uploads and downloads along with access to a full library of adorable holiday backgrounds, frames, and stickers. Both are available to share across social media and are printable at no extra cost. All packages are currently available to purchase via www.createholidaymagic.com.
“At Cherry Hill Programs, we won’t let the circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic stop Christmas for millions of families nationwide or stand in the way of their traditions,” said Matt Windt, chief marketing officer, Cherry Hill Programs. “So we’ve been working incredibly hard to create the same magical, and memorable holiday experience with Santa that consumers are accustomed to getting from CHP. ‘Create Holiday Magic’ gives families security and comfort in knowing they can still provide their children with a more than memorable Christmas that will keep its magic alive for them. In addition to the opportunity to visit Santa in-person at 700 shopping centers and malls this year, Create Holiday Magic is a virtual option to ensure every family that wants to visit Santa is able to enjoy the tradition.”
CHP’s holiday packages are available through Dec. 24, 2020, and can be scheduled in fifteen-minute increments, seven days a week, from 9 a.m. until 9:45 p.m EST.
Cherry Hill Programs operates holiday photo experiences in more than 800 venues across the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico during the Christmas and Easter seasons, while Photogenic, the souvenir division of Cherry Hill Programs, delivers souvenir experiences in dozens of popular U.S. tourist destinations and landmarks year-round.
