Nintendo is ushering in the holiday spirit for fans and families in San Francisco with a memorable presence at the Union Square Winter Walk 2024.
Taking place in the bustling heart of the city, Union Square has traditionally been home to an array of festive events and community activations.
This year, the Union Square Alliance, in collaboration with local sponsors such as JP Morgan Chase, is bringing back this multi-month celebration, transforming a portion of Stockton Street into a pedestrian-friendly promenade and offering a wide variety of seasonal attractions for locals and visitors alike. From December 13 through December 24, 2024, Nintendo will host an interactive booth as part of the Winter Walk experience on Stockton Street, between Post and O’Farrell streets.
Visitors can look forward to character meet-and-greets on weekends, engaging holiday-themed photo opportunities, and exclusive giveaways—including Mario and Luigi holiday visors while supplies last.
Additionally, guests can check in at the Nintendo booth to earn 100 My Nintendo™ Platinum Points*, which can later be redeemed for digital and physical rewards via the My Nintendo program for Nintendo Switch fans. Nintendo’s presence at the Winter Walk is designed to deliver family-friendly excitement.
Over the two-week period, character appearances are scheduled for Saturdays and Sundays, allowing fans to snap memorable photos and share festive moments.
Attendees can further enhance their visit by stopping for a photo with the life-size Mario ornament, prominently displayed in the lobby of The Westin St.
Francis hotel. The Union Square Winter Walk will be open to the public with extended hours throughout the holiday season: Monday to Wednesday from 11 a.m.
to 7 p.m., and Thursday through Sunday from 11 a.m.
to 9 p.m.
These flexible hours provide ample opportunity for visitors to enjoy Nintendo’s activities alongside the broader Union Square festivities. Shoppers and Nintendo fans are encouraged to visit the Nintendo SAN FRANCISCO store, conveniently located nearby.
During the Winter Walk event period, customers who spend $100 or more at the store starting December 13 will receive a Mushroom Kingdom character holiday ornament, available while supplies last.
The store will also debut special holiday displays and offer a range of exclusive, festive merchandise deals for Nintendo Switch owners and fans of the brand. As part of their official event statement, the Union Square Alliance highlighted the partnership with Nintendo and other community sponsors, emphasizing the goal of creating “a joyful, interactive holiday season in the city’s historic center.” Official schedules, activity details, and any further updates will be made available through Union Square’s and Nintendo’s digital channels throughout the campaign. To participate in exclusive offers such as earning My Nintendo Platinum Points at the event, attendees will need to have a registered Nintendo Account.
