What is Santa’s address? How to send a letter to Santa via Royal Mail – and get a personalised reply

Christmas is a magical time for children and adults alike, with a visit from Santa expected at the end of the month for those who believe in the tales of the festive Father Christmas character.

While Christmas grottos can be a great way to get kids excited for Christmas and engage them in the idea of Santa in the build up to December 25, another way for children to share their Christmas wishes (and for you to get a peek at their wish list) is to send a letter of card to Santa.

If you’re planning on helping your kids write to Santa, you better be quick, the deadline is at the end of this week. Here’s how to get a letter to the man in red in Lapland before Christmas.

How to send a letter to Santa via Royal Mail

To send a letter or card to Santa via Royal Mail, simply create your greeting, wish list or note and pop it in an envelope.

If you would like a personalised reply from Santa, make sure you include a full name and return address along with your letter, so they know who to address a response to.

The deadline for posting a letter to Santa at the address below is Friday December 6 if you would like to be in with a chance of getting a response.
