Where to See Santa in the Triad | Santa Photos 2024

This directory is sponsored by Kersey Valley Christmas. Visit Kersey Valley Christmas in Archdale, NC for a night of Lights, Santa, and Action! Kersey Valley Christmas is home to Santa’s Workshop, where kids of all ages can meet Santa Claus in a cozy, charming setting. A ticket is required to see Santa, purchased in advance online. Share your Christmas wishes, snap pictures, and create cherished memories with the jolly man. You can also enjoy a wonderland wagon ride, train ride, and a wonderland of twinkling lights on your visit! Kersey Valley Christmas Adventure Park also offers a kiddie zip-line, mega slides, jumping pillows, bungee trampolines, pedal karts, cow trains and more!

It’s that time of year again!  Santa is in the Triad and this directory will give all the information you need to prepare for meeting the big guy himself!
