Don’t miss the most popular man of the season! Santa Claus and his helpers will ride on a fire truck through the streets of Coral Gables on Saturday, Dec. 2, and Sunday, Dec. 3, before heading back to the North Pole!
This year marks the thirteenth annual holiday tradition of Santa visiting Coral Gables residents to pass out candy canes to children. Coral Gables firefighters will transport Santa and special guests on three separate routes around the city where he will pass by as many homes as possible.
