The Santa Experience

Give your child a special holiday memory with a private, one-on-one visit with Santa at The Lawrence Event Center. Each family gets their own dedicated time slot with no waiting in lines—just a relaxed, comfortable moment tailored to how your child wants to experience it. Whether they want to chat about their wish list, hear a story, or simply sit quietly with Santa, the focus is on making them feel at ease. Your child sets the pace, and every genuine reaction—from wonder to shy smiles to happy tears—becomes part of the magic. A professional photographer will capture your session, and you'll receive approximately five edited digital images in an online gallery about two weeks later. The $349 package (plus sales tax) includes your ten-minute session and those five photos, with options to purchase additional images or upgrade to a full gallery of roughly 40–60 photos at a discounted rate if you pre-purchase. Parents are welcome to join in the photos. The backdrop features a cozy Christmas wreath gallery wall and green velvet couch. Sessions are available on both days, and spots are filling quickly—note that the deposit is non-refundable, and cousins or extended family members each need their own ticket.
