Santa’s Grotto 2020
You and your children are probably worried that you will not be able to visit Santa’s Grotto this year. Worry not! There is a number of different options on offer this year.
We have started our list of Christmas activities for children that will be taking place this Holiday Season.
Santa’s Grotto Online
1. Santa Online
Santa Online is a live video chat service with a direct link to Santa in the North Pole.
With the crazy year we’ve had, we’re all still adjusting to the new normal – including Santa, Mrs Claus and all the elves. They are very excited to be able to video chat live with boys and girls directly from the North Pole!
The process is super simple – Mom or Dad reserve a slot using our booking form and provide details about their boys and girls. On the day the booking is confirmed, Santa’s elves organise delivery of a little present, based on their expert knowledge of your little ones. A link will be sent to your e-mail with Zoom login details. Simply log in on the day and experience the magic of chatting with Santa, all from the comfort and safety of your own home.
It is also possible to select group bookings.
Children with disability / illness / additional needs
Santa and his elves just LOVE children, no matter what! We understand that sometimes it can be difficult for children to come to shopping centers because they are immunocompromised, or because their disability makes it hard for them to tolerate waiting, loud noises, bright lights, big crowds, or taking turns. Santa online provides the perfect solution as it’s all done from the reassuring, familiar and safe environment of your own home. If your child has additional needs, please let us know so that Santa is extra-prepared for your visit!

2. Portable North Pole
Portable North Pole offer interactive videos of Santa, as well as audio and video calls from Santa.
Interactive videos with personalised messages (Free and premium)
Premium video messages from Santa are the most exciting treats you can surprise your loved ones with for Christmas!

Choose from tons of scenarios and have fun personalizing the video with details such as the child’s personality, close friends, habits, location, good deeds, desired gift, and more!
Personalised audio call
When ordering a call from Santa you will be able to choose from an array of fun scenarios from different categories, such as Congratulations, Encouragement, Night before Christmas, Birthday, and more.
Video calls
These include Santa speaking about topics like behaviour (e.g. trying your best at school), congratulating on good behaviour, giving words of encouragement, wishing happy birthday and many more.

3.Elf Town
Virtual Visit with Santa
A live feed to Santa’s grotto in the North Pole. Starting with a magical entry video through the snowy forest right up to the front door in Santa’s Grotto – here is when the live video stream begins with your family and Santa. Santa, of course, knows the children by name and can recall some things such as hobbies/friends etc.
Santa will also advise the children on being good all year around, helping out at home and being nice to everyone.
There also be a small gift under the children’s pillows. The elves will arrange to pre-post Santa’s special Elf Town toy coin for each of the children as a keep sake.
An official invite will come in the post from Santa for the live video link, addressed to the child/children letting them know of the time and day it will happen.

4. The Santa Experience – launching soon here
We may not have the usual Holiday Season this year, but as we did best to celebrate our kids birthdays during lockdown and / or with restrictions, we can make Christmas special for our little ones. Who knows, this may be the best Christmas yet. We hope that the online Santa’s Grotto 2020 offers will help you in making that happen.
Have a wonderful holiday!
We will be sure to add to the list as we see new offers / events come up.
