Excited To Meet Santa? Announcing His Schedule This Year (2024)

As you've heard via the medium of music, it's the most wonderful time of the year!  Well, for the kiddos, it definitely is.  

And one of the biggest moments in any kid's young life is the moment where they get to meet Santa and have a moment with him.

But... where will he be?  He's a busy dude.  Well, he's basically on his last minute tour right now, going around Sedalia and the surrounding areas to see the kids and make sure The List is up to date.  So, I called around a bit and got on social media to see if I could pin down some of the places he'll be in West Central Missouri this year.  Here goes!

Oh, and if you managed to get some time scheduled with Santa, but don't see your business or organization on the list, just let me know and we'll add it in.

He's definitely busy on this weekend!  He'll first go over to a quick reception after the Ride the Train with Santa event.  Keep in mind, the Ride the Train event is sold out, but when the train gets to Sedalia about 10:30, Santa will go over to the Lamy's reception area to talk with kids and take pictures.  He'll only be there for about an hour, though, and the address is 108 West Pacific.  They're gonna have some grinch punch and cookies as well!
