Tips & Advice

  • Book a time slot online, because some dates fill up completely, and reservations on a full date can only be handled as walk-ups at the location.
  • Arrive during your 15-minute window, because each reserved slot is shared with other families and is scheduled that tightly.
  • If you can't decide on a photo package when booking, choose Reserve Now & Decide Later to hold your time and pick a package onsite after the visit.
  • If plans change, reschedule at least 48 hours ahead through your confirmation email, because cancelled reservations are not refunded and all sales are final.
  • Download and save your digital photos to your own device, because they're only kept online for 30 days after the season ends.

Special Events & Promotions

  • Booking online gets you 50% off a Shutterfly order plus 10 free holiday cards.
  • Online reservations include a free personalized video message from Santa before your visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can visit Santa here?

All ages can visit Santa. There's no limit on how many people can be in each photo, as long as everyone fits in the frame.

Will Santa hold my baby?

Yes. Santa is experienced and gentle, and he focuses on safety and comfort for even the tiniest visitors.

Can I take my own photos with my phone?

No. Professional photographers are on set to capture your visit, so personal photography isn't allowed.

How do reservations work, and do I need one?

Reservations are strongly encouraged but not required, and walk-ups are welcome every day until closing. A booked 15-minute slot is shared with up to 5 families, so arrive during your window.
