🎄 Free instant quoteSanta Home Visits
A private visit for your family party, backyard gathering or street party. Santa hands out your gifts and the children’s names are shared ahead.
Santa at your front door
A home visit is a short, personal visit. Santa arrives at your party, says hello, hands out the gifts you have chosen and spends a few minutes with each child. It is often the part of Christmas the family talks about for years.
Every Santa in our network of 500 performers holds a current Working With Children Check or state equivalent and is professionally trained. We have been supplying Santas since 2007.
Bookings range from a single family room to a street party or backyard gathering, and we suit the visit to the group.
How to plan the surprise
A little preparation makes the visit smoother. Here is what we suggest.
Hide the gifts somewhere Santa can collect them, and label each one with the child’s name. Share the names, ages and any details you would like Santa to mention, such as a pet, a sport or a good deed. Tell us about any child who is nervous, so Santa can take it slowly.
- Gifts supplied by your family and handed out by Santa
- Children’s names and details passed on ahead of time
- Short visits, usually long enough for each child to have a chat
- A quiet spot for Santa to arrive, so the surprise holds
- Someone to greet him at the door or gate
- A photo plan, so the adults are ready with cameras
Home visit ideas
Family Christmas parties
A visit during the party, once the kids are fed and in a good mood.
Christmas Eve and Christmas Day
Popular dates, so ask early. Santa can visit before dinner or after lunch.
Backyard gatherings
A shady spot, a chair and a gift sack are all Santa needs.
Street parties
One visit for the whole street. Share the guest list ahead of time.
Booking early
Peak times are Saturdays and Sundays in late November and December, especially late morning to early afternoon. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day fill quickly too, so request your quote early.
A free instant quote has no obligation, and you pay nothing until your Santa is allocated. You then get a client portal with your booking details. For larger events, you can also see multi-venue programs, or look at video chat Santa for family who live far away.

Santa home visits, your questions answered
Who supplies the gifts?
You do. Santa hands them out to the children. Label each one with a name so nothing gets muddled.
How long does a visit last?
Visits are short. Santa spends a few minutes with each child, so the length depends on how many are there.
Can Santa visit on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?
Yes, but those dates are popular and book first. Request a quote as soon as you know your plans.
Can Santa know the children’s names?
Yes. Share names and details when you book and we will pass them on.
Are the Santas checked?
Every performer holds a current Working With Children Check or state equivalent, such as the VIC Working with Children Check, NSW WWCC or QLD Blue Card.
Can Santa visit a street party?
Yes. Tell us the number of children and the timing and we will plan the visit around it.
