It's almost that time again!

Big Top Productions handles the booking and scheduling for the REAL Santa Claus when he visits South-Central Indiana!

If you want Santa to come to your event or home, get ahold of us soon! His schedule is filling up fast!

Call or text Adam at 812-525-7429 or email [email protected] and include your name, preferred date(s)/times, and the type of booking you're inquiring about.

**2022 Pricing Info**
All rates include travel within 30 minutes of downtown Columbus. Due to the rising cost of reindeer food, a small travel fee may apply for visits outside of that radius.

Home Visits - $150 (through December 21st)
Home visits are our most popular type of visit, and normally last 15-20 minutes. They include visits and photos with all children present, reading The Night Before Christmas (other books may be available with advanced notice) and delivery of gifts that are provided by the host/parents, and loaded into Santa’s bag before entering your home. Along with some other magical surprises! Home visits are generally reserved for small gatherings of one or two households, although exceptions can be made for larger parties for a small additional fee.

Hourly Visits - $150 per hour (Available until December 21)
Hourly rates are great for corporate events, clubs, HOA/neighborhood parties, non-profits, Breakfasts/Brunches with Santa, or other large gatherings. Hourly Visits include a grand entrance (if appropriate), and lots of visiting and photos. It’s recommended to have a nice looking area with a sturdy chair and decorations for photos, and to give an area for children to visit with Santa.

Late Season Home Visits - $175
Due to limited availability, visits on December 22nd, and 23rd are priced a bit differently.

Christmas Eve Daytime Visits - $250
Christmas Eve is always in high demand. Daytime home visits are only available until noon on a first come, first serve basis.

Christmas Eve Sneak-A-Peaks - $400
Imagine your parents waking you just in time to catch Santa in the act of delivering your presents, reading your letter, and enjoying your milk and cookies! Be careful to stay quiet and hidden though, because if Santa knows you’re watching, he'll use Christmas Magic, and you’ll be sent back to bed with no recollection of seeing him. Sneak-A-Peak visits are highly limited. Visits will begin at 10pm and are only available within Bartholomew County. Sneak-A-Peaks will last for 5-10 minutes.
*due to the nature of a Sneak-A-Peak, these are only available one time ever per family. Obviously Santa wouldn't let you catch him twice. 😉

If you have an idea for a type of event that isn’t listed, please reach out, and we will do our best to accommodate custom requests!

Crothersville Friends - Santa will be in Crothersville the evening of Saturday, December 10. If you book on that night so that Santa can do multiple visits back to back, we will waive travel fees. Timing will be on a first come, first serve basis.

Due to the varied schedule, please inquire or availability.
