Here’s everything to know when you visit Santa in Rochester Hills
The Village of Rochester Hills is once again inviting you to visit Santa Claus for free in his beautiful and cozy outdoor Santa Snug.
The 375,000 square-foot outdoor center will be surrounded by over 800,000 dazzling-colored lights and Santa can be found in Festival Park, which is right in the center of it all.
Santa will also be bringing some of his reindeer to Festival Park during several of his visits.
Santa will be making his grand arrival to The Village on Friday during the annual Light The Village event and will continue to make weekly appearances through Christmas Eve.
Take photos, drop off wish lists
Guests are welcome to visit Santa’s Snug where they can meet and take photos with Santa and drop off their Christmas wish lists.
The Village of Rochester Hills’ Magical Mailbox will be set up outside Santa’s Snug and will deliver letters directly to the North Pole.
All visits with Santa will be free and are available by walk-up only meetings during Santa’s hours Nov. 21 through Dec. 24. A full schedule of dates and times will be available online at www.TheVORH.com.
Bring a camera
Guests should plan to bring their own camera as photographers will not be provided.
The Village of Rochester Hills will once again be offering two special themed nights to jump-start the holiday season: Special Needs Night — Saturday, Nov. 22 from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.; and Pet Night — Sunday, Nov. 23 from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Guests that need additional accommodations are encouraged to come out and visit with a special Santa who has experience in working with individuals with sensory, physical, or other developmental needs. Families will be given extra time and assistance during these visits.
