Sensory Santa

A Sensory-Friendly Santa Experience

On Sunday, Dec. 7th from 2:00–5:00pm, children and families who benefit from a calmer environment are invited to enjoy a sensory-friendly visit with Santa before the center opens to the public. This creates a quieter, more relaxed experience. We’re especially excited that this year’s Sensory Santa event is in partnership with the Autism Society of New Mexico.

Sensory Santa is designed for children with autism, sensory sensitivities, or other developmental differences. The environment will include alternative seating options for photos with Santa, softer lighting, gentler background music, various sensory corners and activities, and limited foot traffic to help reduce sensory overload.

This event is free to attend, and Santa photo packages will be available for free. To help us keep the experience calm and organized, each family or group is asked to RSVP in advance by reserving one ticket/time slot. One ticket covers your entire family for that time (for example, a family of four only needs one ticket).

If tickets appear “sold out,” please reach out to the Autism Society at and we will make every effort to find a time for your family to meet Santa.

By registering for and attending this event, you consent to having photographs of you and your group taken and used for publication and promotional purposes.
