“Santa, Mrs. Claus were absolutely the best!!! definitely would hire again..... ”
Raleigh Santa Claus
Northgate Mall
Overview
I am happy to provide an energetic and fun event for children of all ages. I have a real beard and a full hand made Santa suit. I can do some story telling with a little magic. I was the morning Santa at Crabtree Mall for four years. I helped light the NC Christmas at the state capital in (phone number hidden)3 .
I led the Christmas Parade at Northgate Mall to open the 2016, 2017 Christmas Season. I am a member of the International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santas and have a clean background check.
I have several magic tricks with great learning lessons. One trick, I turn coal into diamonds, magically color in a coloring book and cut a rope in half and put it back together.

Raleigh Santa Claus was wonderful! He made an appearance at our family Thanksgiving in order to collect everyone's Christmas lists. He was great with both the little children AND the teens. They all enjoyed his magic tricks as well. We would definitely use him again.

November 26, 2025Perfect Addition for My Client Event
Santa Duane was punctual and fully engaged with my guests. The children and adults both loved him. He posed for photos and did magic tricks. He was the perfect addition to my client event. I will definitely hire him for future events.

July 29, 2025Best Santa Ever
We hired Santa for my husband's 41st bday party with a 'Christmas in July' theme. He was amazing - interacted with the guests, graciously took pictures and had a wonderful entrance and exit, letting people know Santa arrived. People asked me his info to book him for their next event! Santa made our event!

December 9, 2024Legit Santa
I would highly recommend! He was a pure delight and had the adults thinking he is the Real Santa. He was very professional and was going the extra mile to make sure he made children and adults a like feel the magic but also feel comfortable.
