Snow or not, he shows up exactly when he says he will, boots stamping and cheeks already red from the trip. He settles into the room like he's got nowhere else more important to be today, which, for one afternoon, he doesn't. Every kid gets a real conversation, not a quick photo and a wave, he remembers what they told him, even the small stuff.
From Dublin and Westerville to central Columbus, Santa arrives fully costumed and completely in character for parties across Central Ohio.

His suit is a deep red velvet with real fur-trimmed cuffs and collar, tailored to hold its shape through hours of hugs and lap sits. The belt and boots are built for comfort over a full afternoon of kneeling down to talk with kids at eye level, and the beard is secured to survive tugging without shifting mid-conversation.
Age-appropriate themed games matched to your character — from hero training to royal etiquette.
Simple cheek art or a temporary tattoo, included with every visit.
A high-energy dance-off your character leads with the guests.
Availability varies by costume, performer, and your requests. Simple cheek art is included; balloon twisting is an add-on and subject to availability.
