Santa Is Checking Your Kid's List At North Straub Park

ST. PETERSBURG, FL — On Friday, the Santa Claus tour featuring his reindeer stops in St. Petersburg at North Straub Park.

Kids can enjoy a meet-and-greet with Santa from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., the city of St. Pete said.

Visiting Santa this year will be a little different than previous years since the city is following Centers for Disease Control guidelines at all St. Pete events. Kids can still have fun and pose for photos with the jolly man. Be sure to bring your own camera.

If you don't want to bring your child to meet Santa because of coronavirus safety precautions, you can request for your child, as long as they are 8 or under, to get a phone call from Santa. Requests are due by Friday, Dec. 11.

Santa's visits at North Straub Park, 400 Bayshore Dr. NE, are Dec. 11 through Dec. 13, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., and Dec. 18 through Dec. 23, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
