Father Christmas will be available to all visitors

Visitors to the Finland Pavilion at Expo Dubai can meet Father Christmas from 17 to 22 December

Santa Claus

Father Christmas will arrive at the Dubai World Expo 2020 on 17 December from his workshop in Korvatunturi, Finland, to greet visitors to the Finland Pavilion. Taking a short break from his busy schedule, Father Christmas will meet adults and children every day to take photographs and listen to Christmas wishes. 

There are few people as instantly recognisable and as loved as Father Christmas. The jolly old man radiates warmth and inspiration and is a symbol of goodwill and generosity throughout the world. Santa's annual mission is to bring happiness all over the world, with the help of his team of faithful elves and reindeer. With the happiness Santa brings and his message of hope and joy, it should come as no surprise that Santa is, in fact, from Lapland in Northern Finland.

To support the Finland Pavilion's theme of 'Sharing Future Happiness', Santa will also be asking visitors what makes them happy in the hope of spreading Christmas cheer to all.

Departing just in time to begin his deliveries on Christmas Eve, Father Christmas will meet visitors at the Snow Cape Finland Pavilion until 22 December 2021. Visitors are encouraged to plan their trips to meet Santa in advance to avoid any disappointment.
