Santa is Coming!

Santa engine

Hey Lake Mary!  Have you all been good this year?  We hope so because Santa and Mrs. Claus are coming to town on December 9th and 16th, so mark your calendars!  As in previous years, they will be visiting various neighborhoods in Lake Mary escorted by fire and police department units.  This is a fun and much anticipated annual event that provides smiles, joy and yuletide greetings to all within the City limits and who couldn’t use a little extra of that? 

The City would like to invite everyone to join in on this exciting annual tradition.  Make it fun for the family by wearing your best Christmas attire (or PJ’s) to show your holiday spirit!  Don’t forget your furry friends as Santa has treats for them as well. 

Although Santa can’t visit every street, he will be riding through each neighborhood waving and passing out candy and toys.  To visit as many as possible, Santa’s tour has been mapped out and divided into two days.  The tour will begin both days at 8:45 a.m. and continue until 5:00 p.m., or until each neighborhood on the route has been reached.

To find out which streets Santa will be visiting or when you can catch him riding through town, see the Santa Parade Schedule/Route listed below.  In addition, watch for updates and information on our live Santa tracker map.  This map will help you track Santa’s whereabouts each day and know when he will be heading to your neighborhood.   

For additional information regarding Santa’s visit, please contact Deputy Chief Wendy Niles at (407) 585-1364 or at (321) 320-0554 on the day of.
