Amazing Experience!

Santa was such a magical experience to my Day home Christmas party. The children truly enjoyed every part of his visit. Santa was quick to respond to the curious kids. He showed them his magic key and explained the ins and outs of the North Pole. He read them a story so well. All correspondence was fast and thorough.

Highly recommend!

Absolute magic

Santa Edmonton was the best gift I could’ve given my daughter this year. We booked Santa to cone for a home visit this year because we are very Covid safe. Santa was triple vaccinated, was extremely respectful of our wishes and offered to mask.
His visit was nothing short of magic. He remembered me (mom), very sweet. He told us secrets of the workshop, gave us some dance moves to remember the names of the reindeer and shared Christmas secrets. I couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to book again next year. Who knows, maybe Santa would even come to a birthday party? I just can’t wait to see him again and he made my daughter feel very special. Thank you so much, Santa. This exceeded my expectations and i can’t wait to see you again. The real deal ♥️

Exceeded my expectations

Santa came to our Sunday brunch we were hosting. He had our guests singing and smiling and the children became giddy with joy. People lined up to take pictures with him and gathered around to hear what he had to say. What a great personality. I have never met anyone better. Two thumbs up and the highest of recommendations from our establishment.

The most amazing Santa!

Wow, the best Santa I’ve ever seen! He not only looks like the perfect Santa, he’s warm, inviting, and the kids loved him. He had lots of stories and if I didn’t know better, I could almost imagine he’s the REAL Santa Claus - he was that good.

Santa’s visit

The birthday boy Chance and all the guests had a amazing time with Santa. The adults couldn’t believe that even when Santa talked to them he asked them what they wanted for Christmas . It was a pleasure having Santa and we would definitely do it again ....

Fabulous Experience

Santa Edmonton was great to communicate with, punctual, and everything we hoped for! Santa interacted with the children answering all of their questions, and showing them his magic key and naughty/nice meter. He was terrific about photos and handing out the gifts. We couldn't have hoped for more, and the children of our overseas guests, as well as our own little ones, were enchanted!

Santa was a huge hit!

We had Santa make an appearance at our company's Children's Christmas Party to visit and have photos taken with the kids. We had approximately 75 children and he spent quality time with each and every child to help make the party a memorable event. The "nice list" medals for each child was a nice touch! Thank you Santa!

The most endearing Santa you can hire!

This Santa is simply incredible! He made a wonderful entrance with his bells jingling and “ho ho ho-ing” through the door shaking little hands and giving out hugs as he made his way through the room. He had the children and their parents in a magical trance with his authentic costuming, which included a key to Santa's workshop, and absolutely delightful and gentle manner with each of the guests. Each child was given a Santa medallion as a gift along with a personalized certificate. They also took a professional photo with Santa as well. We were very fortunate to have such a professional and endearing Santa Claus visit and spend time with our friends.

I will be sure to spread my recommendation for hiring this Santa for your next Christmas get together!

What to Expect

Santa Edmonton is visiting in person or virtually!

Currently booking for 2022, there are still some open days and times. Please inquire with the date you are considering and he can suggest alternate dates if needed.

A visit from Santa Edmonton is truly magical! Guests are often gathered around to greet Santa when he arrives. You may want him to go directly to the spot you've prepared for him, or he could roam around greeting guests. Once seated, he'll visit with each child, asking what they want for Christmas and checking the Naughty or Nice List.

If pre-arranged, Santa can even present each child with their own custom printed Nice List Certificate and "I'm on Santa's Nice List" medallion!

Santa can also present small gifts you supply. I'll provide instructions to make this go smoothly.

If Santa's photographer is there as well, we'll make sure each child is photographed with Santa. This is a fantastic gift to the mom or dad who is usually stuck taking pictures instead of enjoying the visit with their children.

Santa is a storyteller, so you may hear stories about life at the North Pole, or a secret or two about the reindeer.

About

Santa Edmonton began visiting children with special needs and has been bringing joy to kids of all ages for over a decade.

He was fortunate to graduate from the Charles W. Howard Santa Claus School in 2017. This is the longest-running Santa school in the world and was started by Macy's original Santa. The focus of the school is how to be the best Santa possible and covers technique, story telling, appearance, etc. He is also a graduate of the Christmas Performer's Workshop, and an active member of the Santa Claus Conservatory.

He has a current RCMP background check and vulnerable sector clearance which is available on request.

Additional Booking Notes

I want to make your visit with Santa perfect!

Once you've booked Santa's appearance, I'll provide a detailed guide to make the visit a huge success. It's a long trip from the North Pole and we'll plan everything to ensure your guests have a great time with Santa!

Setup Requirements

Reserve a special parking place for Santa. It should be as close as possible to where he is visiting. If your event is at a company facility, office building or hotel, try to make arrangements for Santa to park in a valet or loading area.

A host should meet Santa when he arrives: to assist him; to show him where to park; to help load any presents into his special “Santa” bag; and to escort him to the location of the event.

If there is a balance or payment due to Santa, place it inside a Christmas card or envelope. Never give Santa money in front of the Children. It can ruin the magic of the moment.

Santa wears his boots with the big white fur tops outside and inside. Since he doesn’t take them off inside, you may want to prepare to keep things tidy: Outside, make sure walks are freshly shoveled from Santa’s reserved parking to the entrance.

Have your gifts ready. Santa normally does not bring any candy canes or gifts with him unless prearranged. He will hand out your candy and gifts and can carry in one bag of presents for children or guests, about 40 pounds.

Presents should be well labeled. We suggest a large black marking pen and writing directly on the gift, as tags can easily fall off.

Get everyone together, before Santa enters. Timing is everything. You have scheduled Santa for a set amount of time, which begins the minute he arrives. Unless otherwise arranged, he will not be able to stay longer than he has been booked for.

Have a sturdy chair for Santa to sit in. Folding chairs and low chairs (the ones you sink into) are not good. Santa usually likes a chair that is sturdy and stable. A good straight-back dining chair, with no arms, works well.

Place the Chair near your Christmas tree or in a holiday setting. Your photos will have more impact when the background has a festive look. Place a wreath, a few Christmas cards or your children’s drawings on the wall to make a wonderful difference.

Leave a couple of feet between the chair and the backdrop or wall. This will allow room for others to gather around and behind Santa’s chair for group photos.

Fireplaces look nice, but remember putting Santa too close to a real fire is not good for his comfort or health!

Virtual visits are most enjoyable if you use a full size monitor rather than a table or a phone. High speed internet and a webcam are a huge help, too!
