Throughout the holiday season, you have a lot on your list. You’re decorating the house, buying presents, and baking five million batches of your specialty chocolate chip cookies. In between all the hustle and bustle, you still need to make time to take your little one to see Santa. Luckily, we have tons of local places that have your back! As an Oklahoma City family photographer, I adore working with families to make this season extra memorable! Here are the best places to plan a visit with Santa in OKC!
Create Magical Holiday Memories With These Spots To Meet Santa In OKC
Santa Photos With Me!
If you want something a little different than your standard OKC mall Santa pictures, we should connect! Each year, I host Santa sessions that let your child meet the big guy, leaving you with heirloom pictures perfect for the holiday cards! There are several experiences you can choose from, including luxe and miniature sessions. Your child will hang out with Santa, enjoy some Christmas cookies, and make some crafts. Afterward, you’ll walk away with three digital pictures that you’ll cherish for years to come.
North Pole Adventure
3447 W. Main St., Norman, Oklahoma 73072
North Pole Adventure is an immersive OKC space that lets you experience all the magic of Santa’s workshop. Your child can send a letter to Santa at the North Pole Post Office, or they can try out cookies in Mrs. Claus’s Kitchen. Once you are done meeting real-life reindeer, you can head to Santa’s House so your child can get a picture of Jolly Old Saint Nick himself!
Bass Pro Shops And Cabelas
Bass Pro Shops: 200 Bass Pro Drive, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73104
Cabela’s: 1200 W. Memorial Road, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73114
Each year, both Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s host their very own Santa’s Wonderland, where you can come in, meet Santa, and explore the OKC shops. I love this option because they make it very convenient. You can schedule your time right from your phone so you can easily get in without the wait!
The OKC Polar Express Train Ride
3400 NE Grand Blvd, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73111
If you want to capture the feeling of the Polar Express, this is just the spot! With the OKC Polar Express Train Ride, your child can take a journey on the legendary train and meet Santa! For one hour, you can enjoy hot chocolate and entertainment before it’s time for Santa to make his grand appearance!
The Malls in OKC
Penn Square Mall: 1901 Northwest Expressway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73118
Quail Springs Mall: 2501 W. Memorial Road, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73134
Sooner Mall: 3301 W. Main Street, Norman, Oklahoma 73072
If you want a classic option this year, the Penn Square Mall, the Quail Springs Mall, and the Sooner Mall will all have a spot where you can come and meet Santa in OKC. All three locations welcome walk-ins, plus you can take care of some of your shopping while you’re there!
