Hire a Santa Claus in Columbus, OH
When the holidays come around, Hire Santa Columbus brings Santa to the places where people are already celebrating.

A gold key on a chain and a handful of sleigh bells are what Santa has with him as he waits in a chair by the window. On a home visit the children have Santa’s full attention, in a room they know, for the whole time you book. In Clintonville and other older parts of the city, many houses have a front porch and a living room just inside the front door, so it is a short walk from the doorbell to the tree. Columbus is cold in December and the sun sets early, which is why the whole visit is planned for the living room. Our Santa home visits give each child a turn to talk with him before the family gathers for a picture.

Hire Santa in Columbus, OH
A log cabin porch and a wooden reindeer set the scene as Santa raises a hand to say hello. Families who hire Santa through us pick one of two Santas. The first has a real white beard that he grows all year, and it looks natural when a child is on his knee or a photographer steps in close. The second wears the traditional suit with a full styled beard and costs less, which suits a party where most guests will see him from a few steps away. For a portrait session at home in Upper Arlington or Bexley, the real beard is the better choice. If close-up pictures matter most to you, ask for a real bearded Santa.

Professional Santa Claus for Columbus Events
Two nutcracker soldiers on stilts tower over Santa and Mrs. Claus beside an indoor staircase. Companies book a professional Santa Claus for holiday parties of every size, from a lunch in the conference room to an evening dinner with spouses and children invited. We send him to the office towers downtown and to the office parks that line I-270 from Dublin to Westerville. When employees bring their families, more of the party goes to pictures, so it helps to mention that when you call. Our corporate party Santa welcomes guests as they come in and then settles near the tree for photos.

Santa for Hire in Columbus and Franklin County
With a letter open between them, Santa and a child read on a red sofa while the Christmas tree stands close by. A Santa for hire is booked by one person on behalf of many, such as the parent hosting the cousins, the neighbor organizing the block or the manager in charge of the staff party. Many homes around Columbus have a finished basement, and it is often the best room in the house for a party with a crowd of children. Whatever kind of gathering it is, our Santa services have a visit to match, and we bring them to Columbus, Dublin, Westerville, Grove City and the suburbs around them.

Santa Claus Impersonator for Hire in Columbus and Central Ohio
Two elves in green stand on either side of Santa outdoors, where he wears a long burgundy coat and gives the camera a thumbs-up. A Santa Claus impersonator, a Santa actor and a Santa performer are three names for one professional, someone who plays Santa in full costume and in character at your event. He greets the grown-ups, kneels to talk with the smallest children and poses for every picture he is asked for. Neighborhood groups, shops and community organizations in Columbus, Hilliard and Gahanna bring him in for a tree lighting, an open house or a holiday party at the clubhouse. A Santa Claus impersonator is just as welcome at a big family get-together at home.

Three elves line up with Santa on a plaza in front of a storefront. Schools, churches and daycare centers rent a Santa for a pancake breakfast, a classroom party or the gathering that follows the Christmas program. A gym or a fellowship hall lets every grade have a turn in a single morning, while a daycare classroom keeps things calm for toddlers. Before a school and church Santa visit, we talk through the schedule with the person in charge, from where Santa will sit to which class goes first.
If pictures are the main event, ask about Santa photos, and if you are expecting a crowd, ask about adding Mrs. Claus and elves.

“This was our first time hiring a Santa and I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I have four grandchildren and getting them all to sit still for pictures is almost impossible. Santa was so patient with them. My youngest kept asking him questions and he just went along with it. It was really sweet to watch. I’d definitely recommend him.”
