30th Annual

Professional Santa Claus School

August 31 - September 4, 2012

Red Lion Hotel - Denver, Colorado

Registration closes August 16 or when all seats are reserved.

Since 1983, American Events has trained, outfitted, and contracted over 1500 quality Professional Santas who are assigned to exciting Christmas events, promotions, malls, parades and more during the holiday season. Opportunities are available beyond the holiday season for print work, advertising campaigns, catalog shoots and more.

We have successfully trained men with no previous Santa experience. Finding American Events and attending the Professional Santa Claus School before they started gave their Santa career a jump-start to Santa success!

AND…Hundreds of Santas, some of whom have been playing Santa for 25 years, have been amazed at the wealth of information and new techniques learned at American Events Professional Santa Claus School! After completing the school, these experienced Santas excitedly report that these unique Santa tools have taken their careers to new levels with renewed energy and deeper insights, and have allowed them to expand their horizons, and increase their personal satisfaction and holiday earnings.

American Events has spent over 20 years developing and perfecting hundreds of "tricks of the trade" to:

Enhance your professional Santa appearance from head to toe
