Santa's Arrival Fairfield 2018

Event Sponsors

Santa is arriving and visiting Fairfield on November 24^th! Santa Claus, played by Joe Skarupa, a perennial Santa-About-Town, will arrive by hook-and-ladder at 10 AM. He will be greeting the children on Old Town Hall Green until approximately 2:00PM. Santa’s elves will give each child an adorable, small holiday gift item.

This free event, in its 18^th year, is made available to the community through the generous support of the Chamber’s membership.

As in the past, the ever-popular children’s petting zoo will return, from 10 AM to 1 PM weather permitting, as well as the much anticipated horse and wagon rides (10am-2pm). A food truck will sell breakfast sandwiches/coffee and hamburgers and hot dogs to the public, plus a variety drinks. DJ Scott Nickel will provide classic and traditional holiday music, creating an even more festive feeling, as children walk up to see Santa.

The Chamber has also invited non-profit organizations to distribute information about their charitable community outreach efforts and/or sell holiday items to benefit and support their programs. In addition, holiday face painting and free hot chocolate will be offered as well.

November 24^th is also “Small Business Saturday”, a national campaign started by American Express to promote, and remind our residents and people, to “shop local” and support local businesses. The Chamber will give out “I Love Fairfield” button pins, along with a “Shop Local” items from the Town of Fairfield, including canvas bags.

In the case of very heavy snow or rain, the event will be canceled. For current information, please check the Chamber’s website: FairfieldCTChamber.com … or call the office: 203-255-1011.
