Now is the time to reserve your place if you have been excitedly anticipating the opportunity to whisper your Christmas greetings into Santa’s ear. Following his dramatic arrival following the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, families may start booking their chance to meet and greet the cheerful guy in red at Macy’s Herald Square. According to PIX11, reservations for this beloved Yuletide tradition opened at 6:30 a.m. today.
Spots to see Santa fill up fast, even though reservations open five days in advance. According to The Points Guy, groups of up to nine people can schedule a photo with Santa from November 29 to December 24, but wait times of 30 to 90 minutes are to be expected.
After passing through the velvet ropes of Santaland on the eighth level of Macy’s, guests will be encircled by a charming 13,000-square-foot Christmas hamlet, complete with all the decorations of the North Pole. According to reports, over 170,000 people visit this Christmas paradise every year in hopes of sharing their wish lists and feeling the warmth of Santa’s laughter. Although the visit is free, there is a fee for taking pictures with Santa; picture packages start at $39.99, detailsPIX11highlights.
To keep crowds under control, Santaland is still only accepting reservations this year. Five days prior to their visit, guests should make their reservations online to guarantee a spot. The Points Guy reminds you to bring a printed reservation with a QR code. These timeslots are in great demand because Santa’s itinerary is booked up until December 24 and the Christmas season is well underway.
