Santa Claus Is Coming To Town: Where To Meet Him In Malden

MALDEN, MA — Santa Claus is taking time out of his busy schedule at the North Pole to visit his Malden office.

Santa will drop by Pine Banks Park on Saturday, Dec. 18 from 2-6 p.m. This is his 72nd annual trip to see the children of Malden and Melrose.

Santa will visit with children to hear what they want for Christmas – so make sure you bring your list – and also pose for keepsake photos.

Park Superintendent Kevin Benner, along with the Pine Bank's elves, will prepare Santa's office and decorate the park with lights. Malden Councillor Barbara Murphy and Santa's helpers from Ward 5 will serve delicious hot chocolate and cookies.

Attendees are asked to follow COVID-19 protocols and wear a mask while in line.
