Where To See Santa In San Leandro This Christmas Season

You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout — Santa Claus is coming to town!

SAN LEANDRO — Visits and pictures with Santa are treasured traditions for many San Leandro families. For them, there’s nothing quite like seeing jolly old St. Nick live and in person.

In San Leandro, children will have the opportunity to meet Santa Friday evening at the "It's a Wonderful Night" Holiday Celebration. The event will include the annual tree lighting, holiday performances, photos with Santa, holiday train rides, crafts for kids, holiday market, and more! See full details here.
