Macy’s Holiday Windows

As the first department store to feature animated window displays, the iconic Macy’s Holiday Windows will once again enthrall and entertain.

Macy’s Santaland at Home – Delivering Holiday Cheer Nationwide

Santaland’s digital-only experience returns, with an all-new immersive adventure for kids everywhere as they virtually visit Santa’s Workshop via Macy’s Santaland at Home. Available at macys.com/HolidayCelebrations, kids will enter a magical snow globe portal that whisks them to Santa’s Village and Workshop for a very special holiday treat. Guided by Santa’s elves, kids can choose their own interactive journey as they explore the magical land. From augmented reality activities like decorating their own personal trees and sharing them with loved ones (via Macy’s Santaland at Home, Facebook and Instagram) to fun interactive games across Santa’s workshop, kids will have a blast during their virtual escapades. A visit to Santaland would not be complete without an audience with the jolly one himself, and kids will meet Santa through an interactive video and have the chance to take and share a special Santa selfie. Free to all, Macy’s Santaland at Home will be available beginning Friday, November 25 through Saturday, December 24. To access the site, a supervising adult must create an account, provide the appropriate permissions to activate the program including approving access to the hardware for the interactive elements and selecting their preferred Santa experience.

Starting Monday, December 5, the virtual Macy’s Santa fun will extend to the metaverse this year via an immersive virtual reality quest on Meta’s Horizon Worlds that allows holiday explorers to roam Santa’s home, feed the reindeer, take part in playful snowball showdowns and more.

Macy’s Holiday Happiness is brought to fans in part by Balsam Hill®, Entenmann’s® and Hallmark Channel. All entries to Macy’s holiday experiences are free. For more information and to make reservations, please visit macys.com/holidaycelebrations.
