Bridgewater Commons Hosts Santa’s Luau Event and Fundraiser for Maui

Donnella Tilery Editor

BRIDGEWATER TOWNSHIP, N.J. (November 30, 2023) — In the middle of a hectic holiday season, even Santa Claus needs a little sun and sand — or at least a tropical feast! To give our favorite gift-giver and shoppers a taste of the Pacific, Bridgewater Commons will celebrate Santa’s Luau on Wednesday, December 6 from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Don your best Hawaiian gear with Santa, get your photo, join in the fun with lei giveaways and a live ukulele performance from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., and help support those affected by the wildfires that damaged Maui earlier this year.

“Let’s be clear, we New Jerseyans love the sand and ocean, and this is a fine way to get a little of the tropics into our lives during this busy, but chilly season,” said Tom Kovacic, Marketing and Business Development Director for Bridgewater Commons. “And we’re happy to support Maui by matching 100% of the proceeds from the day and donating the sum to our parent company, Pacific Retail Capital Partners’ drive to support Maui.”

Pacific Retail Capital Partners manages retail centers in Hawaii, including Queen Ka’ahumanu Center on Maui, and established the Extend Aloha campaign to provide relief to the affected areas through a partnership with Maui-based DTL Foundation 501(c)3.

Located along Interstate 287 at the intersections of Route 22 and Route 202/206, the 1.2 million-square-foot Bridgewater Commons is Somerset County’s largest shopping, dining, and entertainment destination.

The complex also includes The Village at Bridgewater Commons, a unique, open-air shopping district with more than 10 retailers and food and beverage locations including LOFT, Maggiano’s Little Italy, Shake Shack, and Starbucks.
