Our experience was tip top perfect! As Santa arrived, our 4 year old ran to him and Santa took his hand and Andrew’s smile was from ear to ear! He spent the day telling everyone he say that Santa read a book and said he was in the good list! He was super proud of his Santa Coin!!! Andrew was living his best day ever!

This is Santa! The day was beautiful and the children were all so excited to spend time with Santa reading books and talking. Perfect experience!

My 2yr old grandson and 7yr old grand daughter loved him. The magic tricks and North Pole was a plus for my granddaughter.

Our Wonderful Santa

To say Our Santa (because yes we are claiming him now) was amazing, would be a complete and utter understatement.  

From the moment he walked in, there wasnt an adult in the place who didnt say "wow it’s really him", Santa sparked an amazing giddy happy excited feeling in all of us adults, getting a glimpse of him while waiting caused unbelievable excitement in the adults and the kids.

The kids who attended were in awe of him! The children walked in and to call it a Kodak moment and one for the Christmas cards doesn’t do it justice. Santa was unbelievably kind in nature and how he engaged was incredible. We had babies having their first visit whose parents have already contacted us asking will he be back next year. Families from the Ukraine who are experiencing Christmas in our town for the first time in very uncertain conditions said their visit to our Santa Experience actually helped them to look forward to Christmas given the difficult time in their lives. We had children with Autism react in a way their parents never thought possible, getting actual photos and accepted their Santa gift - it was an amazing sight to see. 

This Santa experience for the Families in our community meant more than words can express, and I am unbelievably grateful at the generosity he showed, taking time away from his own family to give our families an unforgettable experience.  

We cannot recommended Santa enough, anybody who has the opportunity to have him for their Christmas Grotto is extremely lucky. He is 100% the real deal and truly demonstrates and envokes in everyone who meets him the Magic of Christmas

We had such a wonderful time hosting Santa Winston at my store! He and his elves made sure every child had the best experience possible meeting the big man himself and we look forward to having him back next year!

Last year we had the fortunate opportunity to use Santa Winston for our annual Breakfast with Santa event.  He was on time, amazing with the kids and his attire is spot on!  All of the kids were in awwe and the parents were so appreciative of his patience and kindness in dealing with the children that were a bit 'unsure' of things.  He gets 5/5 in our book and we will be using him for years to come!

Over the course of the day of the switch on of our lights, my duties kept me away from Santa. None the less as the day went on I met a steady stream of children and parents that were blown away by their visit to him. Long after the lights came on and the crowd thinned out, I got a chance to thank him personally and I have to admit to being more than a little star struck. Before and after speaking to me he posed with groups of teenagers who were both clearly thrilled to have met him.

I could not recommend him more highly. It was an absolute honor to have had him as part of out switch on ceremony.

"Our visit to Santa this year was magical, so authentic and he really took the time to engage with my daughter and was very witty. I would highly recommend visiting as the elves, Santa and photographer were a super team. You didn’t feel at all rushed, I was so impressed I would consider going back again just myself 😂"

"What a wonderful Santa with a beautiful costume that looks like the real thing - maybe it is!  So kind with the kids and lovely to work with!" - Diane in Cork, Ireland

I cannot say enough POSITIVE things about our experience with Santa Winston! I'm not sure who enjoyed it more—the adults or the kids! He was so kind and attentive to the children and answered some tough questions with such grace. :) I wish everyone could've seen my oldest granddaughter's face when he actually knew she was having a birthday soon...and my other granddaughter's face when he gave her an ornament that she'd been wanting! If you'd like to have a unique, magical experience for young and old alike, I can't recommend him enough! 🎅✨

Santa Winston is the best. The kids and adults all love him. He came to The Home Depot last year and will visit us again this year. We are all excited to see him again!
