Santa Claus To Visit Alpharetta Welcome Center
Residents can stop by the Welcome Center Saturday, Dec. 1 to take free photos with Santa Claus.

ALPHARETTA, GA — The Alpharetta Convention and Visitors Bureau next week will host an opportunity for you get your annual photo shoot with Santa Claus. Free Pictures With Santa will be held from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, Dec. 1, and families are encouraged to stop by for a complimentary individual or family photo with Kris Kringle.
A photo will be printed onsite and emailed instantly to each person, so it can be shared with family and friends. Attendees should not wear green clothing, as the photographer will be using a green screen and green clothing will interfere with the photo quality.
“Alpharetta must be on Santa’s nice list since this is his seventh year in a row visiting our Welcome Center,” said Janet Rodgers, president and CEO of the Alpharetta Convention and Visitors Bureau. “This event continues to grow more popular each year, and we are looking forward to showcasing the Alpharetta Welcome Center and the CVB’s complimentary event planning services to all the families who come by that day.”
