June 4, 2023Bubbles and fun!
We hired Classic Cause for my daughters 5th birthday. The setup was great- tons of bubbles and bubble making toys of all sizes. They came prepared with a great playlist of the kid’s favorite songs- it definitely set the tone. We definitely recommend!

November 12, 2019Fantastic to work with!
Classic Claus was great to work with! They were very professional and made our marketing event a hit! Classic Claus goes above and beyond, even bringing Mrs. Claus and a sleigh! The families at our event loved getting to meet them....and the adults, too! We'd highly recommend Classic Claus for your next event or party.

December 26, 20165 STARS IS NOT ENOUGH
If I could rate Classic Claus a 10, I would !! Santa, Mrs. Claus and Jingle Bell were absolutely AMAZING !! My 5 & 3 year old grandchildren were beyond excited. And they are still talking about Santa personally coming to their house to deliver their gifts. Classic Claus spoke to them like he had known them all his life . And really went beyond the call of duty to create and extra special experience for them !!!! And even made an appearance for me ON Christmas Day !!! That's SPECIAL !!!! Its something I will never forget. And I know for a fact, my grandchildren won't either. Thank you so very much Classic Claus. We WILL see you and Mrs. Claus next year !!

December 16, 2025Just okay
There was nothing "bad" per se, and our Santa was not rude or anything like that... but he was not very talkative or outgoing and didnt seem to be very comfortable and interact with the kids much. We ended up letting him leave early after about 40 min because it seemed awkward. For $292 for an hour's worth of time, I guess we just expected a better experience.
