Thanks to Santa we really enjoyed your visit :)
We hired Santa for The Artisan Lodge at West Edmonton Mall and he CAME TO LIFE! I was so so impressed with his holiday cheer, how he transforms into Santa so magically, how amazing he was to work with, and just the whole experience. The photo set up was an incredible addition to the day. Highly highly recommend!
There is no better Santa. Real deal. Chefs kiss. Thank you again.
Response from Santa Edmonton:
Awe, you're the best! I feel honoured to be able to visit with your family and friends and look forward to it each year!
Excellent Santa to work with. Very pleasant, accommodating and arrived on time. Would definitely hire again!
Santa was wonderful and loved by everyone!
Santa Edmonton was absolutely incredible! He was so patient and kind with the shy kiddos and had perfect answers to every child’s questions. Myself and all my clients had a fantastic experience and I highly recommend Santa Edmonton for all your Santa Clause needs.
Santa was such a magical experience to my Day home Christmas party. The children truly enjoyed every part of his visit. Santa was quick to respond to the curious kids. He showed them his magic key and explained the ins and outs of the North Pole. He read them a story so well. All correspondence was fast and thorough.
Highly recommend!
Santa Edmonton was the best gift I could’ve given my daughter this year. We booked Santa to cone for a home visit this year because we are very Covid safe. Santa was triple vaccinated, was extremely respectful of our wishes and offered to mask.
His visit was nothing short of magic. He remembered me (mom), very sweet. He told us secrets of the workshop, gave us some dance moves to remember the names of the reindeer and shared Christmas secrets. I couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to book again next year. Who knows, maybe Santa would even come to a birthday party? I just can’t wait to see him again and he made my daughter feel very special. Thank you so much, Santa. This exceeded my expectations and i can’t wait to see you again. The real deal ♥️
It was so amazing to see children and adults smiling and so happy. Santa was very jolly, informative and great with interacting with children. I hope to book again and again.
My kids are really happy to have santa at home it was an awesome visit
We cannot express how amazing our visit was!! Everyone felt the Christmas magic in the room for sure that day! We cannot thank Santa enough for his visit and everyone is still talking about him today!!! You exceeded our expectations !! You were prepared for every kind of question that came your way and had the most amazing imaginative answers for all the curious little ones!! Truly magical!! We hope to see you again next year for another amazing visit!! Thank you again for bringing the Christmas spirit to all our families who joined us that day!!!
Santa came to our Sunday brunch we were hosting. He had our guests singing and smiling and the children became giddy with joy. People lined up to take pictures with him and gathered around to hear what he had to say. What a great personality. I have never met anyone better. Two thumbs up and the highest of recommendations from our establishment.
Santa Edmonton was wonderful from coordinating the event, to interacting with our guests and children. I couldn't be happier with how our event ended up and mostly thanks to Santa.
Wow, the best Santa I’ve ever seen! He not only looks like the perfect Santa, he’s warm, inviting, and the kids loved him. He had lots of stories and if I didn’t know better, I could almost imagine he’s the REAL Santa Claus - he was that good.
Santa Edmonton was amazing. He is so great all kids! Even kids that are nervous and scared.
He helped make my event run smoothly and had the best interest of my business and clients.
He was amazing and I hope to work with him again!
Highly recommend Santa for your events he made our day truly magical
The birthday boy Chance and all the guests had a amazing time with Santa. The adults couldn’t believe that even when Santa talked to them he asked them what they wanted for Christmas . It was a pleasure having Santa and we would definitely do it again ....

Santa Edmonton was great to communicate with, punctual, and everything we hoped for! Santa interacted with the children answering all of their questions, and showing them his magic key and naughty/nice meter. He was terrific about photos and handing out the gifts. We couldn't have hoped for more, and the children of our overseas guests, as well as our own little ones, were enchanted!
He plays the part well!
We had Santa make an appearance at our company's Children's Christmas Party to visit and have photos taken with the kids. We had approximately 75 children and he spent quality time with each and every child to help make the party a memorable event. The "nice list" medals for each child was a nice touch! Thank you Santa!
Santa Edmonton was everything I was hoping for!
Not only is he professional, has a great attention to detail and is very reliable...but above all he knows how to create Christmas Magic for the little ones and their families. You can tell he is very passionate and he is very committed in creating a very unique experience for everyone he meets.
I would definitely recommend him!
Many thanks!!
This Santa is simply incredible! He made a wonderful entrance with his bells jingling and “ho ho ho-ing” through the door shaking little hands and giving out hugs as he made his way through the room. He had the children and their parents in a magical trance with his authentic costuming, which included a key to Santa's workshop, and absolutely delightful and gentle manner with each of the guests. Each child was given a Santa medallion as a gift along with a personalized certificate. They also took a professional photo with Santa as well. We were very fortunate to have such a professional and endearing Santa Claus visit and spend time with our friends.
I will be sure to spread my recommendation for hiring this Santa for your next Christmas get together!
Price Range: $200 and up, based on date.
Gig Length: 30 - 480 minutes

Currently booking for 2024, he encourages inquiring as early as possible for the best selection of dates. He turns down over a hundred requests each year simply because he is already booked.
A visit from Santa Edmonton is truly magical! From his authentic look to his engaging smile, he brings the magic of Christmas alive! He can make a grand entrance in front of thousands and quickly get the crowd engaged, or entertain a family in their home.
Since every visit is different, he will work with you to ensure the most successful visit possible, whether it is a short 30-minute visit or a multi-day affair. With his years of bringing joy in all kinds of appearances, he's a valuable resource to help make sure everything goes smoothly.
If Santa's photographer is there as well, we'll make sure each child is photographed with Santa. This is a fantastic gift to the mom or dad who is usually stuck taking pictures instead of enjoying the visit with their children.
Santa is a storyteller, so you may hear stories about life at the North Pole, or a secret or two about the reindeer.
Santa Edmonton began visiting children with special needs and has been bringing joy to kids of all ages for over a decade.
He was fortunate to graduate from the Charles W. Howard Santa Claus School in 2017. This is the longest-running Santa school in the world and was started by Macy's original Santa. The focus of the school is how to be the best Santa possible and covers technique, story telling, appearance, etc. He is also a graduate of the Christmas Performer's Workshop, and an active member of the Santa Claus Conservatory.
He has a current RCMP background check and vulnerable sector clearance which is available on request.
I want to make your visit with Santa perfect!
Once you've booked Santa's appearance, I'll provide a detailed guide to make the visit a huge success. It's a long trip from the North Pole and we'll plan everything to ensure your guests have a great time with Santa!

Reserve a special parking place for Santa. It should be as close as possible to where he is visiting. If your event is at a company facility, office building or hotel, try to make arrangements for Santa to park in a valet or loading area.
A host should meet Santa when he arrives: to assist him; to show him where to park; to help load any presents into his special “Santa” bag; and to escort him to the location of the event.
If there is a balance or payment due to Santa, place it inside a Christmas card or envelope. Never give Santa money in front of the Children. It can ruin the magic of the moment.
Santa wears his boots with the big white fur tops outside and inside. Since he doesn’t take them off inside, you may want to prepare to keep things tidy: Outside, make sure walks are freshly shoveled from Santa’s reserved parking to the entrance.
Have your gifts ready. Santa normally does not bring any candy canes or gifts with him unless prearranged. He will hand out your candy and gifts and can carry in one bag of presents for children or guests, about 40 pounds.
Presents should be well labeled. We suggest a large black marking pen and writing directly on the gift, as tags can easily fall off.
Get everyone together, before Santa enters. Timing is everything. You have scheduled Santa for a set amount of time, which begins the minute he arrives. Unless otherwise arranged, he will not be able to stay longer than he has been booked for.
Have a sturdy chair for Santa to sit in. Folding chairs and low chairs (the ones you sink into) are not good. Santa usually likes a chair that is sturdy and stable. A good straight-back dining chair, with no arms, works well.
Place the Chair near your Christmas tree or in a holiday setting. Your photos will have more impact when the background has a festive look. Place a wreath, a few Christmas cards or your children’s drawings on the wall to make a wonderful difference.
Leave a couple of feet between the chair and the backdrop or wall. This will allow room for others to gather around and behind Santa’s chair for group photos.
Fireplaces look nice, but remember putting Santa too close to a real fire is not good for his comfort or health!
Virtual visits are most enjoyable if you use a full size monitor rather than a table or a phone. High speed internet and a webcam are a huge help, too!
