🎅 Santa is Coming to Town… and Arriving in Style!
Santa is trading in his sleigh for a helicopter entrance to kick off SantaLand in the Old Mill District!
The day after Thanksgiving, one of Bend’s favorite traditions returns as Santa gives his reindeer the day off and hitches a ride with help from AirLink Critical Care Transport and the Deschutes County Search and Rescue Team.
🎄 Where to Watch:
Gather on the west event lawn for Santa’s grand arrival. Grab a cozy drink from Sisters Coffee Co. or a pastry from M’s Bakery, then head across the flag bridge to find your perfect viewing spot as excitement fills the air.
📸 After He Lands:
Santa will head to SantaLand (above LUSH) for visits, photos, and plenty of cheer kicking of SantLand all month long! Kids can drop letters in the North Pole Express Mailbox (no stamp needed, just include a return address for a reply back!) Don’t miss the Tree of Joy, a Rotary Club of Greater Bend project supporting local families in need.
🛍️ Make a Day of It:
It’s Black Friday, so stay for special deals, treats, and holiday magic throughout the Old Mill District.
✨ Free and open to all!
Come for Santa, stay for the joy, and feel the magic of the season!
