Absolutely outstanding!!

We had everyone visit for a family reunion! All week my wife had Christmas theme activities planned. Whenever anyone was being bad she said she would be telling Santa! Little did any of us know that she had Santa show up at our last night together Christmas party! Santa spoke with each person as if he knew them personally. His laugh and everything was just perfect! When he left we all said that must be the real Santa ... no helper. We will be having him visit again! It was a wonderful experience that all our guest will remember forever!

What an incredible and memorable experience!

We had a Christmas pajama party, the kids didn’t know there would be a surprise arrival and when Santa arrived, the kids were enchanted. The kids asked so many questions and he answered them with such a warm embrace. We also asked if he could read “The night before Christmas “ and to our surprise Santa autographed our book. What a treat! Thank you again for such an incredible evening that is sure to keepsake in every single one of our children, we hope to have you again next year!

What to expect

Please note that, when you book Simply Saint Nick, you are getting much more than a man with whiskers in a suit. You are getting a trained professional, in custom regalia, with years of experience in performing at events such as yours. What you will get is a magical experience you, nor your guests, won't soon forget. Each visit is custom and can be tailored to your needs. I take my role as Santa very seriously and look forward to bringing holiday magic to you.

About

Hop in the sleigh and take a ride with me, Santa John Johnson, a real-life Santa Claus who has been spreading good cheer over four decades. I can share my experiences, reveal historical and spiritual truths, and spread a message of faith, peace, and hope. God has a purpose or calling for each and every one of us, a way for us to bring praise and glory through service. I found my purpose early on in life and I have never regretted putting on Santa's red coat. I truly have the time of my life bringing smiles to children of all ages, even earning a spot in the International Santa Claus Hall of Fame. I am Simply, Saint Nick!
