Selfies with Santa 2025

From November 28, 2025, through Christmas Eve, everyone is invited to Holiday Under the Palms at Brookfield Place to capture a complimentary selfie with Santa! On select dates, bring your pup for a fur-tastic photo op with Santa. Experience the magic of the holiday season with crafts, candy canes, and a sprinkle of merriment. Upon arrival, Santa’s helpers will check you in and you’ll soon receive an alert when it’s your turn to meet the jolly man in red. While you wait, explore Brookfield Place for the perfect holiday gifts or grab a bite to eat!
