The BEST Santa Experience

The day is here for Santa tickets! Cookies with Santa is a unique experience where your children will get to not only take pictures with Santa at our photo area but also get to play with him in the play area. Our Cookies with Santa event features photo and play time with Santa, cookie painting, our letters to Santa station, and play! If you missed Cookies with Santa last year we can tell you we have the BEST Santa! He is endlessly patient, loves playing with the kids, and embodies the spirit of Christmas. Each child will even get their party favor gift bag given to them straight from Santa at his chair.

What to expect:
Santa will be available for photos in his chair, with our side bench set up for those needing more space or family photos, and throughout the play area. Families always get great and unique photos with Santa here because of the comfortable and playful setting that is familiar to most of them and lets them have interactions with Santa outside of just the initial photo op. Santa will be available for photos at our backdrop station at the beginning and end of each session so children who were nervous for the attempt have more chances for photos. Families can play and paint their cookies when not doing Santa visits. Santa will visit everyone in the play area as well.

There are event slots hourly on Saturday, December 12th. This event has a lower limit for children than many of our other events to make sure everyone is able to have a calm and enjoyable experience, so make sure to get your tickets early. Morning times in particular usually sell out within a few days, about 25% of spots are already gone from our email release this morning.
