What can Santa and his elves do at an event?

A professional Santa with a real or quality beard and full costume can greet families, host a grotto, hand out gifts or make a grand entrance at a Christmas party. Elves help run the queue, keep children entertained and add to the festive feel.

Christmas characters work at staff family days, garden centres, shopping centres, hotels and venue grottos, as well as adult office parties where Santa can make a cheeky appearance. We can help you plan the grotto set, the queue and the gift handout.

Where it works best

  • Office Christmas parties

    A surprise arrival for the grown-ups.

  • Retail and venues

    Seasonal footfall for shops and centres.

  • Brand activations

    Santa handing out samples or gifts.

  • Christmas grottos

    Santa and elves for a proper grotto experience.

  • Staff family days

    Gifts and photos for employees' children.

  • Winter wonderland

    Festive characters in a frosted setting.

Tips from our team

  1. 1

    Prepare the gifts

    Label gifts by age or name and agree who hands them over, so nothing slows down Santa.

  2. 2

    Ask about checks

    If children will attend, ask us about DBS checks and we will confirm what each performer holds.

  3. 3

    Plan the grotto flow

    A clear queue, a welcoming elf and a photo spot keep a grotto calm and happy.
