Santa Tracker 2020: When St. Nick Arrives In Aurora
While you celebrate Christmas at home, see when Santa Claus and his reindeer are scheduled to arrive in Aurora.
AURORA, IL — It’s been a tough year, and while few traditions this holiday season will go on untouched by the coronavirus pandemic, here’s one we can still count on — seeing whether Santa Claus is en route to Aurora with a sleigh full of Christmas gifts.
It’s a tried-and-true way to bring an extra spark of joy to kids this holiday season. It’s also a good incentive to get the kiddos tucked in by convincing them that Rudolph’s red nose is trained on your house and Santa is, in fact, on his way.
