Sensory Santa

This Christmas, meet Santa in a relaxed, low-sensory environment.

At Sensory Santa, you can enjoy one-on-one time with Santa and his helper in a quiet setting at the Baldivis Indoor Sports Complex.

To give as many families as possible the opportunity to attend, each family will be allocated one 15-minute session. Santa will be mindful of your needs and with a dedicated timeslot, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the experience with minimal waiting.

This event is targeted towards neurodivergent individuals and families, and people with sensory sensitivities.

Registrations

Registrations are essential and open on Monday 12 October, closing Tuesday 24 November.
