Shillito’s Elves (from front page) a labor of love that combines the magic of Christmas with the technology of animation. We're delighted to bring the historic Shillito's Elves back into the spotlight, ensuring the spirit of the season shines brightly for all to enjoy."

Little ones are encouraged to bring your letter to Santa and mail it in the elves’ oversized mailbox. “With special holiday magic, this enchanting mailbox can whisk all letters directly to Santa’s mailroom at the North Pole, where busy elves sort bags and bags of letters,” says one of Santa’s helpers. You can download, print and fill out an official Santa’s Workshop Letter to Santa from the Santa’s Workshop website.

This display is wheelchair accessible. For more information on the display and scavenger hunt, or to keep tabs on latest news and possible weather-related closures, visit:
