Get in the holiday spirit with a Santa sighting! We've put a list together of where to see Santa in Niagara this holiday season!
Pelham Santa Clause Parade
Saturday, December 12, 1-3:30pm
Each year the Fabulous Fenwick Lions host the Santa Claus Parade.
This year a modified "Reverse Parade" in Centennial Park will replace the traditional parade experience.
What is a "Reverse Parade?"- in this format, the floats become a stationary display and spectators instead drive through the route to view the displays from the safety of their vehicle.
Santa Claus is Coming to The Pen Centre!
Nov 26 - Dec 24
EVENT COURT (between SportChek / Walmart)
Santa is coming to town, and we look forward to welcoming you and your families to visit him and get a holiday photo this season.
With so many children depending on him this year, Santa’s safety is top of mind for us, so we are offering a socially distance Santa experience that allows guests and Santa to stay safe while capturing the magic of the season.
What is different this year?
Utilizing our beloved Pen Station Train as the backdrop, guests will be invited to sit in one of the train compartments while Santa is off to the side. To help minimize wait times, and traffic at the set, all photo appointments must be booked in advance. All payments will be cashless and made online before your appointment with Interac, Visa, MasterCard or Apple Pay.
