Macy's Santaland
- see all dates
Santa swoops back over to Macy's for visits with his littlest fans! Wander the rainbow road to his workshop, where you'll meet jolly old St. Nick. Share your wishlist before receiving a special gift and posing for a keepsake photo.
Read our full article for tips on the best times and ways to see the one true St. Nick.
Reservations open six days in advance of each visit date, at 6:30am local time, so you need to make a reservation online six days before you want to see Santa (for example, to reserve a spot on December 16, plan to click the reservation link at 6:30am on December 10). There is only one appointment per customer, and the Macy’s Santaland experience is free and open to the public.
Santa heads back to the North Pole on Wednesday, December 24, so schedule your meeting before then!
