A Woodstock outlet mall is kicking off the holidays Saturday. And they're doing it up big.

The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta is hosting the jam-packed event from 7 to 9 p.m. There will be fire-dancers and "hula-hoop artists" along with aerial performers, stilt-walkers, aerial performers, balloon artists and a magician, the mall said.

Still not impressed? First of all, wow, and second of all: There will be "The Candy Sculptor, who crafts custom candies right before your eyes, will amaze you with his candy creations. And "a team of candy girls ... helping to spread holiday cheer."

There will be a craft station where children can create festive holiday hats.
