Todd, a customer from Richmond, Virginia said, “Each year we’ve gone to Santa’s Wonderland at Bass Pro Shops they’ve added, changed, or just made it different for my three children. The number one reason my kids want to go is Santa – probably the best Santa in Richmond. Probably the best Santa my wife and I’ve seen in years!”
Bass Pro Shops has thought of every detail to make this Christmas experience memorable with a no-wait Bass Pass to see Santa. This allows parents to set appointments to see jolly old St. Nick so they can shop or enjoy the activities at Santa’s Wonderland instead of waiting in line.
