Santa is returning to the Long Center this year for "Santa on the Terrace," an event presented by H-E-B. The event will take place on November 30th, offering free holiday photo opportunities with Santa in his sleigh against the iconic skyline. Pets are welcome to join in the photos.

Attendees can also interact with Mrs. Claus and take "elfies." Discounted tickets to Long Center Presents shows will be available, along with instant digital delivery and onsite photo printing services provided by TapSnap.

To get a photo with Santa, visitors should wait in line, have their picture taken, enter their phone number and email into an iPad, and then receive their digital photo on their phone. Printed photos can be picked up before leaving.

The event will start at 11 a.m. on Long Center’s H-E-B Terrace. Members of the Long Center and H-E-B Partners can arrive early from 10-10:30 a.m. to enjoy cookies and cocoa while avoiding crowds.

H-E-B sponsors this community event with additional support from Baylor Scott & White Health and Long Center Members. Admission is first-come, first-served, subject to capacity limits, and will close at 2:30 p.m.
