Santa Gabe has been a professional speaker and entertainer for over 10 years and this will be his fourth season as Santa! He has been Santa for local theater productions, the Columbus Parks Department, White Castle Restaurants, and many private homes & businesses. References available on request.
Santa Gabe will wow your guests with his theatrical quality costume, lush beard, and freshly shined boots! He is available for events and parties of all types both during the day and evening year round.
Everyone is instantly attracted to his outgoing and endearing personality and joyful belly laughs. He is magical for all ages! You are never too old to believe in Santa...
Santa was amazing with the kids. He made sure they felt comfortable and worked great with the kids. He took siblings together as well as parents who wanted to join them when asking Santa for presents. Each child was extremely happy; Santa let him mention every single gift that he wanted for christmas. He worked well with children of all ages. I was extemely impressed with Gabe as Santa. I would recommend him to anyone.
We had a Christmas party with some friends and relatives (about 10 kids). Santa Gabe was great! Last year's Santa was good, but he was better! He was great with the kids and even convinced my super shy 4 year-old to sit on his lap! He was fantastic with the adults - really engaging and had a million cute "santa-y" things to say. Had us all laughing - I think the adults were more delighted than the kids! Thanks so much, Santa!
I had the pleasure of meeting "Santa Gabe" last year at White Castle -- he was the Santa over there. Wonderful Time. He accepted a letter from my 8 year old with a twinkle in his eyes. She still talks about her meeting with Santa.

I can provide almost any type of service or performance you are interested in - from traditional to modern. I can be the traditional Santa that talks to kids on his lap and hears their Christmas wishes. I can mingle with your cocktail party guests and regale them with stories of the North Pole. I can read a story, or quote "Twas the Night Before Christmas." I will pose for an unlimited number of photos. I am also available for any print or other media campaigns. Whatever type of Santa you need, I will find a way to provide it!
I have been a professional corporate trainer and speaker for over 10 years. As such, I am very comfortable in front of a crowd or interacting with a small group. This will be my fourth season playing Santa, and I have been Santa for local theater productions, the Columbus Parks Department, White Castle Restaurants, and many private homes and businesses. References available on request.
My schedule has a lot of flexibility, and with proper notice I can be available any time during the day or evening. As a newer Santa, my rates are very reasonable as I gain exposure and experience.
I work well with both children and adults. Children especially are drawn to me, and I always strive to "get down on their level" and make them feel comfortable. Even children who start out scared of Santa will come around! Adults appreciate how quickly I can think on my feet and respond appropriately to any situation.
My theatrical quality costume trimmed in real fur is striking and impressive. I wear a high quality artificial beard which provides that lush and full fantasy look. A "real-bearded" Santa is constrained by how much hair he can grow - not me!
At 6'3" and 260 pounds, I convincingly convey the spirit of Christmas. I am 37 years old and am originally from Columbus, Ohio. My wife and I currently live in Reynoldsburg. I would love to tell you more about me and my work as Santa!

There are no shortage of Santa images for me to draw on - Kris Kringle, Father Noel, and Saint Nicholas to name a few!
