Skip the mall stress. Here's where to see Santa in Morinville this year.

Forget fighting with parking, walking forever to the right spot, and lining up just for 15 noisy seconds on Santa’s knee and an overpriced photo.


Morinville has amazing options for Santa visits and photos with Santa for free or low cost, ranging from low-sensory calm to full holiday chaos.


Get out your calendar and pencil, and read on!
