About this adventure
As part of downtown Orlando's free Downtown for the Holidays program, Santa receives visitors at the Eola House on the edge of Lake Eola Park on select December evenings. Visits are first-come, first-served: families must be on site to scan a QR code and join a virtual queue, and the queue can close before 9 PM once capacity is reached, so arriving early in the evening is wise. Bring your own camera or phone for photos. The same evenings bring the Merry Market of local vendors, the holiday train on the north-east lawn and the nightly Christmas tree light show, so a Santa visit can be combined with a walk around the lake. On Sunday, December 13, the Santa line runs as part of a sensory-friendly evening.
