Santa Float Dates & Route Information
Santa will visit the Cities of Neenah and Menasha on December 2, 2024 through December 13, 2024.
At this time, the following parameters have been set for us to bring this time-honored tradition:
1 – We have many requests for the float to stop so Santa can receive treats. While we appreciate the thought we cannot stop the float to receive any of these treats due to safety concerns for individuals approaching the float.
2 – We often have people chasing the float in their car and/or attempting to jump on the moving float. If this happens, we will stop the float for the night. This causes a very unsafe situation for both our firefighters and the general public. The float is large and difficult to see around. We want everyone to be safe.
We will give a daily update on our Facebook page in the event that there are any last minute route changes beyond our control. A map of the route for the night, and the link for the Santa tracker is posted each night so you can see where he is in relation to the nightly route. If we have to shut down the float during the route, for any reason, we will give an update on our Facebook page as soon as possible to notify everyone what is happening.
