Santa Claus is Coming to Bucks Towns in 2025!

Whether you're hoping for a quick pic or an immersive holiday experience, let us help you find the best Santas in Bucks County this holiday season

Santa and a little boy pose for a picture at Charlann Farms in Bucks County.

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! 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 ), we’ve gathered a list of where to find Santa in Bucks County, so grab those selfie sticks and let’s go!

Where to See Santa in Bucks

Bucks County offers magical Santa experiences for every family this holiday season. From traditional mall visits to festive train rides, there are options throughout the county. Many locations offer free photos, special needs accommodations, and pet-friendly sessions.

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!

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 Thursday, November 13, visit Gasper to take your FREE family photo with Santa in his workshop to remember the 2025 holiday season. Children will be able to speak with Santa and Santa will provide a small gift for each child. Gasper asks families to consider bringing a donation for the Bucks County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, SPCA. Go to here to schedule your visit in advance.  Book your session in advance before slots fill up.

Giggleberry Fair

167 Carousel Ln, New Hope
November 14–December 20

Ditch the lines and find holiday sparkle at Giggleberry Fair — Santa’s waiting among the garland! Photos begin November 14 and run until December 20, every Fri–Sun. Giggleberry Fair also offers Breakfast with Santa where you can enjoy a buffet-style breakfast, storytime with Mrs. Claus, holiday treats, and $5 game card, as well as time to play at Giggleberry Mountain, the Grand Carousel, and Giggles Discovers. Cost: $33 per child, $21 per adult.

The New Hope Railroad

32 W. Bridge Street, New Hope

The New Hope Railroad is offering TWO Christmas-themed train rides. The main differences between the rides are the type of engine pulling the train (steam or diesel). Both 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.

Oxford Valley Mall

2300 Lincoln Highway, Langhorne

Your ultimate Santa experience awaits! Oxford Valley Mall offers the traditional Santa experience, plus a few special events including Pet Nights and “Caring Santa” for children with special needs, beginning November 21st. Starting December 1st, Santa is available every day, Monday to Friday 11 am – 7 pm, Saturday 10 am – 8 pm, and Sunday 11 am – 6 pm. Simplify your visit by making a reservation here!

Santa’s House in Doylestown

Hamilton Street & W. State Street, Doylestown

Santa’s House is open in Doylestown to all kids young and old! Santa’s first arrival is with the annual Christmas Tree lighting on the evening of Friday 11/28. Santa will be appearing throughout the holiday season from 11/28 through 12/24 and has hours every day except for Monday through Wednesday. Visits to Santa’s house are FREE, but donations towards Discover Doylestown are greatly appreciated.

Sesame Place’s A Very Furry Christmas

100 Sesame Road, Langhorne

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 Holiday Light Show! 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.

Quakertown Farmer’s Market

201 Station Road, Quakertown
Novemeber29–December 21

Join Quakertown Farmer’s Market every Saturday and Sunday for cheerful visits and on-the-spot photos with Santa. Photos: $5 each or 4 for $15 — printed while you chat with the jolly man in red! This Farmer’s market also has Santa Pet Photos for $6.00 each.
