Every year at the end of the year, the resort lives to the rhythm of Santa Claus with this magical event for young and old peoples.

For as long as anyone can remember, Santa Claus has always stopped off in Les Gets to prepare for his grand tour… This year, Santa Claus returns to his domain, a magical, fairytale forest populated by mischievous, prankster elves!

Over the course of the week, enjoy guided story-walks in the world of this joyful little realm, animations, surprises for the whole family: workshops, all-public shows, and not forgetting the famous arrival of Santa Claus on December 24 on the Front de Neige… 🎄🎁🎅

All proceeds raised will be donated to three associations dedicated to helping sick or disadvantaged children find comfort and well-being by introducing them to the joys of the mountains: Association Petits Princes, Génération Montagne, and Enfance et Montagne.
