Welcome to the official home of Kristofer C. Kringle, based in the heart of Southern Indiana—just a snowball’s toss from the town that bears his name, Santa Claus.  For over 40 years, I’ve had one job and one job only: to bring happiness and joy to children of all ages.

​

My appearances are more than performances—they’re carefully crafted experiences rooted in love, tradition, and belief.  Whether I’m arriving at a community tree lighting or sitting beside a child quietly whispering their hopes, my mission is the same: to create moments that become memories, and to help every child feel seen, cherished, and believed in.
