Get the Christmas spirit at Pointe-à-Callière!
In November and December, come meet Santa Clauses from around the world. Young and old alike will get to see Pascual, St. Lucy, St. Nicholas, and the ever-popular Santa Claus.
These four Christmas characters will tell children about the various ways the holidays are celebrated in their respective homelands. Experience a delightful world tour of holiday traditions! And get to know your real Santa Claus!
New this year
Meet Pascual, our new Father Christmas from Ecuador. Inspired by South American Christmas stories and traditions, Ecuadoran author Miraya Bayancela has created a tale that will whisk you off on a journey, exploring holiday traditions around the world.
How it works
Once again this year, we are presenting the Who is the Real Santa Claus? activity in a performance format. In our all-new education space called the Atelier, you’ll get to explore the stories and adventures of our four Christmas characters.
