A Magical Ride with Santa!

A Magical Ride with Santa!

Where: Main Street Te Puke
Date: 05 Dec 2026
Time: 11am-12pm
Date: 05 Dec 2026

Every year, as part of the Seeka Te Puke Christmas Float Parade, we offer one very special little girl or boy the opportunity to ride alongside Santa himself in his sleigh!

And this year, we’re looking for someone special to join him!

Do you know a child who deserves a little extra Christmas magic?

Perhaps they’ve shown incredible courage through a challenging time, have a heart of gold, always put others first, or simply deserve a special moment to remember.

Whatever their story, we’d love to hear it!

We’re inviting our community to nominate a deserving local child for the chance to experience the magic of Christmas from the best seat in the parade — right beside Santa!
