Tips & Advice

  • You don't need tickets or reservations, so you can simply drive out to Wilsonville Road on any of the seven open nights.
  • Have the kids write their wish lists at the Letters to Santa station first, then share their wishes with Santa, who is there every open night.
  • Leave time to browse the North Pole Market, which sells homemade jams, butters, baked goods and handmade crafts alongside the displays.
  • Look for the vintage animated displays from the old Meier & Frank department store, a piece of Portland's holiday history by David Hamberger and Harold Gale.
  • On Christmas Eve the display closes earlier than on the other nights, so arrive with enough time to see everything and visit Santa.
