About this adventure
Since 1861, Macy's Santaland has been New York City's most iconic destination to meet Santa Claus. Spanning 13,000 square feet on the 8th floor of the flagship Herald Square store, the immersive holiday village transports families through a North Pole wonderland filled with motorized train sets, talking reindeer, snow-covered pine forests, giant gingerbread houses, and bustling elf workshops before a private family meeting with Santa himself. Free reservations are mandatory and released online on a rolling 7-day basis at 6:30 AM ET.
