Santa Returns to Historic City Hall

Last Updated 11/17/2022

Santa Central

City Hall will be festively decorated inside and out, ready to host Santa Central on Friday, December 2 from 6-8:30 p.m. You’re invited to take photos with the Nutcrackers standing guard in the front of City Hall or with Santa beside the 15-foot tree inside. 

There will be refreshments, arts and crafts for the children and special tours of Historic City Hall, led by Victorian ghosts of Christmas past.

This a FREE event! 

Call 704-878-3586 if you have any questions!

Magic Mailbox

Santa Claus is leaving his Magic Mailbox at City Hall again this year. Beginning November 28, the Magic Mailbox will be located in the City Hall lobby at 227 S. Center Street. It has the ability to special express your letter to the North Pole without a stamp! In addition, if you include your name and address, Santa will send you a personal reply!

Here are the ways to make sure Santa gets your letter:

        Drop off:  Magic Mailbox (City Hall, 227 S. Center Street)

        Regular mail: Santa Claus, PO Box 1111, Statesville, NC 28687

        Email:  [email protected]

We have Special Santa stationary that can be found at City Hall near the Magic Mailbox.  If you use your own personal stationary or paper, be sure to include your name and address!

Make sure you send your letters no later than December 16!
