Santa Attractions

We’ve unveiled two new Santa attractions this year with health and safety measures in place.

 

 Santa’s Winter Wonderland

At Santa’s Winter Wonderland, families will have the opportunity to have keepsake photos taken with Santa, who’s seated behind a clear plexiglass panel in an open-air woodland setting on level 1 outside the Crate and Barrel wing.
 

Around the World with Santa

At Around the World with Santa in Carousel Court, children can wave to Santa, who’s seated in his sleigh behind a large glass window. Santa is showcased in a whimsical pastel setting featuring figures of children from around the world.
