We had the absolute pleasure of having East Coast Santa at our event this year, and he was nothing short of amazing! He was so gentle and kind with the children, making each one feel special. Santa took time to pose for pictures with families, adding that perfect touch of holiday magic. His appearance on stage during our play was such a highlight – the kids’ faces lit up the moment they saw him!
We could tell how much heart and care he puts into his work, and it truly made our celebration unforgettable. His warm presence helped create memories that will last for years to come. We can’t wait to book him again next year – he’s become a beloved part of our holiday tradition! Highly recommend!
Response from East Coast Santa:
Thank you so much for having us be part of your program. And thank you for the wonderful review. We strive to make every moment with Santa as magical and memorable for everyone. We look forward to seeing everyone again! Merry Christmas!
I wasn't sure what to expect, but I can say having Santa over was such a wonderful experience that I can't wait to do it again next year! East Coast Santa was awesome with the kids and the adults!
Response from East Coast Santa:
Thanks so much for having us visit. We had so much fun with everyone and look forward to visiting in 2024.
I just can't say enough how absolutely amazing this experience was. Santa came alone with with some christmas magic that left the kids amazed and still talking about it.!!!!!!! Planning ahead already for next year!
Mr & Mrs Claus was the hit of my party! They kept communication open to planning, arrival to following up afterwards. My guests young & old were thrilled at our surprise, as he sang to an elder for her birthday, gave a reminder of the reason for the Season & how to be in the spirit of Christmas all year long. Definitely suggest this handsome couple who actively showed they truly love what they do.
Was so great!
I would hire Santa Kenny again in a heartbeat. He came to our pod outdoor Christmas celebration and abided by all the Covid precautions that we asked of him. The kids and adults thoroughly enjoyed our time him, especially his box of magic dust and the amount of detail in his stories. It was definitely a magical experience, and the joy that he gets from giving to the children is evident (and contagious!).
Loved working with you, your presence, and energy!
Response from East Coast Santa:
Thanks for the wonderful review. It was great working with you folks and I look forward to working with you in the future. Merry Christmas.
Santa was absolutely perfect! He and Mrs. Claus kept the kids engaged and the whole hour was organized perfectly! He sang, told stories, and talk to each child. We were so impressed with him! We are already planning our event for him to come visit next year!
The kids loved this Santa!!
Response from East Coast Santa:
Thank you so much for the review. I truly enjoy being Santa and it was a joy to me that I could be there with your family. If you need a Santa in the future please keep me in mind. Have a blessed 2018.

Santa Kenny and Mrs. Claus were absolutely impressive. Santa spent quality time with each and every resident at our party. They took pictures with the residents and their families. Santa Kenny also delivered presents that were donated from the community to all our residents in the special care unit. We are very impressed and would love to invite them back next year.
Our event was great and East Coast Santa was amazing! We can't wait to work with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to add some Christmas cheer to their event!

Putting on the Red Suit isn’t just about saying Ho, Ho, Ho and being jolly.
Putting on the red suit is about bring joy to the joyless, hope to the hopeless, love to the loveless and smiles to those who do not believe they have anything to smile about. It is about sharing the spirit that makes up the HOPE, LOVE and JOY of Christmas all year round.
I put on the hat in November of 2016 and I have not looked at the world the same since.
I have been blessed with the opportunity to be one of the most recognized figures in the world, Santa Claus.
Being Santa is living life with the love and spirit of Christmas all year long.
This didn’t happen by accident. I believe that being Santa Kenny is a destiny in my life, that I may share the hope, love and joy of life and the joy of Christmas all year round.
I have been involved in acting since 2007, interacting with people of all ages – from toddlers to grandparents. I’ve performed as historical figures from the Elizabethan era at the Virginia Renaissance Faire in Spotsylvania, Virginia – putting smiles on the faces of young and old, so being Santa Kenny has been a natural transition for me.
I believe that the story of Santa Claus started with Saint Nicholas of Myra, who selflessly and secretly gave gifts to those in need as a way to help mankind. I like the simplicity of Christmas, where loved ones exchange gifts that come from the heart, not the bank account.
As Santa Kenny, I promote the traditions and spirit of Christmas through actions and a simple love for all of mankind. From my very first appearance as Santa Kenny in 2016, the magic of Christmas has grown tremendously in my heart and life. I am excited to have this awesome opportunity to be Santa Kenny and share the magic to all.
Santa Kenny is also joined by Mrs. Claus. Both of us are available for all of your Christmas needs throughout the year, bringing the joy and happiness of Christmas to children of all ages.
Santa Kenny has many props that can be used to enhance the Santa visit. Story-telling props to help bring more magic into the story and photo backdrops that provide an excellent setting for group and individual photos.
