About this Event

For over 20 years now, the Secret Santa Shoppe has welcomed little shoppers with brand-new, pre-wrapped gifts (most under $20) for everyone on their holiday shopping lists. Volunteers (Santa’s elf helpers) help the tiny bargain hunters around the winter wonderland and the children can express their spirit of giving in this safe, fun, accessible environment. This event is open to all children in the community.

The Secret Santa Shoppe will be opening its doors on Nov 13, 14, 15, 17, 20, 21 and 22, 2026. You can pre-register (10 shoppers per time slot), pre-registered guests will enjoy priority entry, while walk-ins are also welcome. Please only register your shoppers, caregivers do not need to register for a spot. Each child will enjoy a 20 minute shopping experience with an elf helper, to choose the most special gifts for all on their list. Santa will pop by the shoppe to check on the elves throughout the event.

The Sarnia Sting will be joining us on Tuesday, Nov 17 from 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm (advance registration required) and will assist some children with their shopping! Please know that not every child booked on Sting Night will have a Sting player as a helper but they will be on-site and happy to pose for photos.
