SantaCon San Miguel

SantaCon is a fun annual event for people to dress in Santa Claus and Santa’s helpers costumes and frolic through the streets and inside locations in cities around the world.

The focus is on having a good time and spreading cheer and goodwill. In San Miguel we donate 100% of proceeds to Audubon de Mexico, gather goods for the local people living at the dump and support our local bars and restaurants. Most of all, we have a great time and help our community.

We gather in the Jardin at 5:30 pm to hand out candy, take photos and make merry. We'll then parade as a group to our second stop. At our third and final stop we'll host a costume contest and dance the night away.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE
1. Arrive in Santa costume or be an elf, reindeer or season greeter.
2. Santa and his merry gang keep together as a group to make their presence known. They entertain people with expressions of good cheer, they shout out Ho Ho Ho (often) and maybe sing a carol or two. They pass out candy to young and old alike, and they stop for photos upon request.
3. Santa and his gang focus on the fun, not the drink at our cantina stops. They bring cash, remember to tip and make their orders quick at the bar (no complex drinks please!) And they never drink and drive!
