December 13, 2022Santa Michael is great!!
We loved having Santa Michael at our shop! Not only was he patient with every child, he was also kind enough to let some adults take pictures! We had so many compliments. One of our favorite reviews from a mom; "He is the most legit looking Santa I've seen all year." We will definitely book Santa Michael again next year!

About
Santa Michael & Mrs. Claus – Knoxville's Christmas Magic Makers 🎅✨
Some Santas just show up. Santa Michael brings the North Pole with him.
For over 15 years, Santa Michael has been the jolly, twinkle-eyed Santa kids remember long after the wrapping paper is gone. He has a special gift for kneeling down to a shy little one's level, gently drawing out their Christmas wishes, and turning a quick visit into a memory your family will treasure for years.
Why does he connect so well with kids? He's a real-life dad and grandpa. Santa Michael and Mrs. Claus have been married for more than 30 years, raised 4 children, and are blessed with 9 grandchildren. Together, they bring over 35 years of experience with children and families.
⭐ Honored as the featured Santa & Mrs. Claus for the annual Holiday Express in Raleigh, NC!
