Visit Santa across Tampa Bay

Santa waits for jolly children to arrive.

Many of us know this to be true...it gets harder to fit in a visit with Mr. Claus as the season progresses. Book those breakfast seats or reserve that time slot now; it’s time to tell ol’ Saint Nick what you want for Christmas.

Here’s a few venues to visit with ol’ Saint Nick this December.

  • Breakfast with Santa | Saturday, Dec. 3 | 8:30 a.m.-12 p.m. | GFWC Tampa Woman’s Club, 2901 Bayshore Blvd., Tampa | $10-$80 | Ticket includes a photo with Santa, breakfast with Mrs. Claus, crafts, and a goody bag.
  • Visit with Santa | Saturday, Dec. 3-Friday, Dec. 23 | 11 a.m.-3 p.m. | Hyde Park Village, 1602 W. Swann Ave., Tampa | Free | Join Santa for a visit and don’t forget your camera to take photos with him.
  • Visits with Santa | Friday, Dec. 2-Saturday, Dec. 24 | 11 a.m.-7 p.m. | Westfield Brandon Town Center, 459 Brandon Town Center, Brandon | $19.99-$49.99 | Skip the line and purchase your photo package in advance by making a reservation online.

BONUS: Spend a little time with Mrs. Claus for some extra credit on that list. Santa’s better half hosts a storytime in Hyde Park Thursdays at 1 p.m.
