Santa’s Wonderland at Bass Pro Shops is celebrating the holidays once again and Santa arrives November 6th! Families are invited to tailgate at Bass Pro Shops (and Cabela’s) for a festive parade to kick off the Christmas season, featuring Santa as he returns to open Santa’s Wonderland!

Santa will be available for free photos through December 24 ; hours will vary based on day.  Photos with Santa are free, and the set and Santa are authentic and festive!

The contactless visit with Santa helps ensure everyone’s safety throughout the event. Reservations to see Santa must be made online ahead of time and they book up.  Check back patiently as they only release a certain number of times slots at a time.

Santa’s team of elves will clean all surfaces between each visit and frequently ensure all safety measures are being implemented correctly. Families will standby in an area away from other shoppers with fun winter wonderland-themed floor decals and face coverings will likely be required in the store.

During your visit, families can mail their letter to Santa and bring home free holiday craft activity kits while supplies last. Families can also enjoy the amazing aquariums and wildlife displays found in every Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s store.

Reservations are available up to seven days in advance, and fill up very quickly- especially weekends.  We’ve taken many great Holiday photos around Santa’s Wonderland, they really do a great job every year with the decor for this event.

You can time your Santa visit an hour or so before a Mermaid feeding. This was maybe what my kids liked the most, the Aquarium.  Named the “Best Free Attraction in Las Vegas,” this aquarium holds more than 117,000 gallons of water, and it’s home to thousands of tropical fish. Don’t miss live Mermaids swimming where you might see one or two mermaids interacting with the guests.  Mermaid schedule is at the link.

Bass Pro Shops Las Vegas is located at 8200 Dean Martin Drive, next to the Silverton Casino.
