Hello Peeps.

Was looking for more info on seeing Santa.

where it is, what time its open and how long am I going to be in the q for.

Do you get a photo or can you take your own.

And so my kids don't freak out, is it a French Speaking Santa ?

when it starts, the location and times its open will be on the park programme. In past years its been located in the Critter Corral area of Frontierland, right at the back of the park opposite the Chapparal theatre where they used to stage the Tarzan and Mickeys Winter Wonderland shows. The year we queued to meet Santa there, we were there about 30 minutes before he started for the day, and we were about 5th family in the queue, so once he got there, we didn't wait long.

There is a CM there who can take photos, but of course you can also take your own.

Our Santa was French, but like many CMs, once he heard my girls speaking English, he switched to speaking English.

We were there over Xmas and didn't get to see the Santa as the queue was always over an hour long

We went in November one year and there was a two hour wait for Santa! This year we're going to run for the opening as its so cold just standing around makes me turn blue like a smurf!

I really can't remember but I think its something like 10-4 or 5. He needs to be in the parade and when the park closes at 10, I seem to remember that its on around 5pm as the Mainstreet lights came on and mucked up my photography

when we saw him, i think it started at 10.30am - and as the meet n greet is in Frontierland that part of the park isn't open during EMH. We waited at the entrance to Frontierland at 10am then walked straight to the meet n greet area when Frontierland opened.
