Santa With Gifts

Columbia Center

Book a FastPass online to skip the wait, or enjoy special events like Pet Photo Night  and Caring Santa sessions for children with sensory sensitivities. Professional photos available for purchase.

Christmas Tree Selection

Angel Brook:
Christmas Tree Jubilee

Get into the holiday spirit at Angel Brook Farm's Christmas Jubilee at the Benton-Fronk Fairandum! Visit Santa for photos, then explore the festive wonderland with fresh-cut Christmas trees, a delightful petting barn filled with friendly animals, and creative holiday workshops. Browse unique gifts and décor from local vendors, play games, and warm up by a cozy campfire. It's the ultimate Christmas destination where families can make memories that go far beyond a simple Santa visit!

Christmas Cookies Display

Beaver Bark

Visit Santa and take a photo at Beaver Bark, with additional festive activities available for families looking to extend their holiday experience. Guests can also visit the reindeer, make an ornament with the elves, and decorate cookies in Mrs. Claus' Candy Cane Kitchen. It's an interactive holiday adventure that offers more than just a traditional Santa photo.
