This Santa brings real Christmas magic to both children!

Thank you, Santa, for the real, sincere magic that you so generously radiate.
To speak of your kindness, charisma, and beauty is to say nothing at all — you are incredible!
Guys, when he’s near, you forget about your problems and your tiredness — you’re suddenly covered in pure, childlike happiness. It’s incredible!

Thank you, our dear Santa, for simply being who you are.

What to expect

Currently booking for dates in 2025, he encourages inquiring as early as possible for the best selection of dates. He turns down over a hundred requests each year simply because he is already booked.

A visit from Santa Edmonton is truly magical! From his authentic look to his engaging smile, he brings the magic of Christmas alive! He can make a grand entrance in front of thousands and quickly get the crowd engaged, or entertain a family in their home.

Since every visit is different, he will work with you to ensure the most successful visit possible, whether it is a short 30-minute visit or a multi-day affair. With his years of bringing joy in all kinds of appearances, he's a valuable resource to help make sure everything goes 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!
