Santa’s Arrival in Campbell: Storytime and Carol of Lights!

URGENT UPDATE: Santa Claus is making his highly anticipated visit to Campbell, California, with two festive events that families won’t want to miss! On December 5, 2023, the Campbell Community Center will host a special Storytime with Santa that promises to be a magical evening for children and parents alike.

The holiday storytime kicks off at 6:30 p.m., where Santa will share festive tales and spread cheer. After the story, families will have the chance for a personal visit and photo opportunity with Santa. Parents are encouraged to bring their cameras or cellphones to capture these precious moments. Children are invited to don their coziest pajamas and enjoy creating holiday crafts while waiting for their turn with Santa. Spaces are limited, so families are urged to register early at this link.

But that’s not all! On December 6, 2023, Santa will make another appearance at the annual Carol of Lights in downtown Campbell, starting at 4 p.m.. This free, family-friendly event features a plethora of activities including Santa visits, a petting zoo, donkey rides, bounce houses, craft tables, face painting, live music, and community performances. Families can also enjoy free festival snacks while reveling in the holiday spirit.

This year’s Carol of Lights promises to be extra festive with an “ugly sweater” theme. Attendees are encouraged to wear their most outrageous holiday sweaters to join in the fun.

The Downtown Campbell Business Association is calling for volunteers to assist in various roles, including supervising the kids’ play area and operating popcorn machines. If you want to contribute to the festivities, you can sign up via the volunteer registration form here.
