Santa Claus is Coming to (Bucks) Town(s) in 2024!
Whether you're just hoping for a quick selfie with the jolly old man or you're looking for a more immersive holiday experience, let us help you find the best Santas in Bucks.
Santa is making his list (and he’s checking it twice) and at the very top are all the good little boys and girls of Bucks County this holiday season! That’s right, Santa is busy making his rounds and he’s using the Delaware River as his point of reference.
Whether you’re just hoping for a quick selfie with the jolly old man (check out Santa’s House in Doylestown) in the bright red suit or you’re looking for a more immersive holiday experience (like Shady Brook Farm’s Breakfast with Santa or ), we’ve gathered a list of where to find Santa in Bucks County so grab those selfie sticks and let’s go!
Ongoing Events:
Charlann Farms
586 Stonyhill Road, Yardley
What’s cooler than a Santa that arrives by tractor? This little local farm offers time slots to both take your own photos and purchase photo packages, as well opportunities to get your pets photographed. In addition, they also host several fun holiday events, like reindeer visits and a holiday drive in movie so check their calendar for these too!
Feeney’s Bucks County Garden
1134 Bustleton Pike, Feasterville
For many Bucks County families, it isn’t Christmas until they visit Santa at Feeney’s! The store is full with beautiful decorations, making it an experience that’s sure to get you into the holiday spirit. Due to their overwhelming popularity, Feeney’s is now inviting families to leave a $5 donation for the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House. And after you get your photo, you can walk around their store or even pick out your Christmas tree!
Fairless Hills Garden Center
620 Lincoln Highway, Fairless Hills
Santa Scott might just be the most famous Santa in Bucks County. The tattooed Santa is at Fairless Hills Garden Center this year, showing off his “Naughty” and “Nice” forearms upon request. (But don’t worry, you can also get more traditional photos without the tattoos!) Fairless Hills Garden Center also offers Special Needs Hours and pet photos. (In fact, pets are welcome the last two hours of every day!) Packages start at $29.99 for one 5 x 7, one 3 x 5, and two wallet-size photos.
Gasper Home & Garden
316 Tanyard Road, Richboro
Starting Sunday, November 10, visit Gasper to take your FREE family photo with Santa in his workshop to remember the 2024 holiday season.

Book your session in advance before slots fill up.
The New Hope Railroad
32 W. Bridge Street, New Hope
The New Hope Railroad is offering THREE Christmas-themed train rides. The main differences between the rides are the type of engine pulling the train (steam or diesel) and that the deluxe Santa train rides offer newer and upgraded cars. All three train rides are a 1-hour roundtrip from New Hope to Lahaska. Santa and Mrs. Claus walk around interacting with families and posing for photos. Kids receive a small gift, and carolers and musicians lead riders in festive song while you sip cocoa and enjoy a cookie.
Neshaminy Mall
707 Neshaminy Mall, Bensalem
Santa’s helpers have been working hard decking the halls for you and your family, so don’t miss out on taking tree-mendous pics with St. Nick! Neshaminy Mall offers both the traditional Santa photos and pet photo nights. Packages start at $39.99. To make your reservation, click here.

Step into Santa’s Furry Workshop during A Very Furry Christmas Celebration! While you need tickets to the park, this is a really cute and fully immersive Santa experience. Santa’s elves take each family into a little waiting room where you chat a bit about Santa while waiting, then you’re led through a hallway to a cozy little room with Santa that’s decorated with a tree, bookshelf with books and toys, etc. Each family gets its own time with Santa, so it feels like a much more personalized visit than most others. Take your own photos or purchase the professional ones taken during your visit.
Shady Brook Farm
931 Stony Hill Road, Yardley
Come meet Santa and tell him all the wishes on your list before or after enjoying the Hoilday Light Show! When: Santa will arrive by helicopter on Friday, November 29 at 3 p.m. He will be available for photos through December 23. Breakfast with Santa at Shady Brook sells out so quickly every year. But if you don’t get (or want) the dining experience, you can still visit Santa for walk-up photos in “Santa’s Village,” complete with campfires, shopping, food and drink. Plus, don’t forget the lights! It’s free to walk through the Candy Cane Lane light display and visit with Santa. There’s no cost to visit Santa, but if you want pictures with him, you’ll need to buy a photo package.
