ABOUT THE WORLD SANTA CLAUS CONGRESS

The World Santa Claus Congress has been held 52 times now at the Dyrehavsbakken amusement park (popularly known as Bakken) north of Copenhagen, Denmark. Every summer, Santas from the entire world get together at Bakken to spread some Christmas cheer, have fun, network - and make important decisions such as the date of Christmas Eve.

The World Santa Claus Congress at Bakken is the professional forum and social venue for real Santa Clauses from around the world, and their chance to meet other Santas, exchange experience and network.  The Congress also provides a showcase for Santas as a profession and for spreading Christmas cheer throughout the world.

The World Santa Claus Congress was created by that legendary entertainer at Bakken - Professor Tribini - who felt that Christmas should come more than once a year.  And since Santas are normally busy in December, the Professor created Christmas in July - an event that nowadays attracts as many as 200 Santas and Elves and audiences of many thousands.
