Visit Santa Claus in Old Town Square!
Santa’s Workshop is now open!
Santa’s Workshop has been a treasured tradition in Downtown Fort Collins, and we’re very grateful you’re part of it. With thousands of visitors throughout December, wait times in line can reach 1-3 hours, so please plan accordingly.
We highly encourage visits earlier in the month when lines are typically shorter, though we can’t guarantee any wait times.
We understand that waiting isn’t easy, especially with excited little ones bundled up beside you. However, we also know that when your child finally sits with Santa, shares their hopes, and feels truly heard (even for just a few minutes), that memory becomes part of your family’s story.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and for being part of what makes Downtown Fort Collins magical during the holidays.
Santa’s Workshop will be open to children of all ages to come visit and tell him their hopes and holiday wishes.
The public is encouraged to visit early in the season as the lines are shorter.
For information please call the Downtown Development Authority at 970-484-2020 or visit oldtownsquare@fcdda.com
Visits with Santa are always free.
Families can take their own photos, and prints are also available on site for purchase.
