Scottsdale Promenade Welcomes The Elf on the Shelf®

A Spellbinding Holiday Debut at Local Icon

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--This holiday season, Scottsdale Promenade — a premier lifestyle and shopping destination owned by FalconEye Ventures — is delighted to announce a festive collaboration with The Lumistella Company to officially bring their beloved The Elf on the Shelf to one of Scottsdale’s most recognizable landmarks.

For years, the Promenade has delighted the community with its spectacular tradition: a giant inflatable elf perched atop the 125-foot Frank Lloyd Wright–inspired Spire. Now, in partnership with The Lumistella Company, the center unveiled a brand-new, 40-foot “Scout Elf” — officially recognized and blessed by the creators of The Elf on the Shelf.

As families explore the Promenade, they’ll experience a renewed sense of holiday wonder. The towering elf and the striking Wright-inspired Spire have long been a symbol of seasonal joy; this year, they become an officially celebrated holiday icon, marking an exciting new chapter for the Scottsdale community.

“Over the past few years, locals and visitors alike have shared photos and stories of our giant elf — it’s become part of their holiday tradition,” says David Megdal of FalconEye Ventures. “Partnering with The Lumistella Company elevates that tradition into something truly special.”

This week, the new Scout Elf took its place atop the Promenade’s Spire, serving as a festive beacon for shoppers, families, and holiday lovers from across the Valley. Guests are encouraged to capture their visit, share their favorite moments on social media, and spread the cheer using #ScottsdalePromenadeElf.

“We believe in celebrating joy, imagination, and togetherness — that’s the heart of The Elf on the Shelf,” says Tracy Hanchett, SVP Licensing and Business Development from The Lumistella Company. “We’re thrilled to bring our story to life in Scottsdale in such a big, memorable way.”

Join us throughout the season for themed events, festive evenings, exclusive shopping offers and opportunities to make new holiday traditions with family and friends.

Because at Scottsdale Promenade — when the elf arrives — the holidays truly begin.
