Santa's Quiet Corner 

Sunday, 12/7

Step into a calm and comforting holiday space created for individuals with sensory sensitivities. Santa’s Quiet Corner offers a low-sensory Santa experience where families can enjoy the magic of the season at their own comfort. In this gentle environment, lights are soft, sounds are low, and the atmosphere is relaxed. Children and adults are welcome to meet Santa in a way that feels safe, soothing, and supportive.  ¿Prefieres que tu experiencia con Santa sea en español? ¡Hablamos español!
