Welcome to North Pole Party DFW, where the joy of Christmas comes to life through the heart of a family deeply rooted in spreading cheer. Led by Matt and Jennifer McKay, who have been married since 1999, this family has devoted their lives to full-time children’s ministry and has served at a large church in South Dallas since 2007.
As Santa and Holly Claus, they bring their passion for joy, fun, and the true spirit of Christmas to kids and families who might otherwise miss out on these special moments. Their sons each play an important role: Ryan, as Eddie the Elf and Grinch, performs alongside his wife, Marilyn, while Brandon steps into the playful role of the Grinch mascot, making the experience truly unforgettable.
With over 25+ years of experience bringing joy to children and families, the McKays have built North Pole Party into one of DFW’s most trusted holiday experiences. Their deep love for Christmas and genuine passion for creating magical moments is at the heart of everything they do — one unforgettable celebration at a time.

We serve the entire Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) area for in-person events.
We cater to a variety of events, including residential gatherings, and corporate parties. Whether it’s a small family celebration or a large corporate event, we’ve got you covered!
A traditional Santa visit includes a warm meet & greet with Santa, one-on-one time for children (or families) to share wish lists, classic holiday storytelling, and professional photo opportunities. Santa can also lead a tree-lighting countdown, offer a holiday toast for corporate gatherings, or make a special appearance for a meaningful moment during your event.
Our Signature North Pole Party includes music, interactive competitions, and audience-appropriate activities for 10–20 guests, all hosted by Santa and Holly Claus. Every party is thoughtfully structured so the energy stays high, the transitions are smooth, and every guest feels included. The experience also includes dedicated Photo Time with Santa and Holly Claus so families, friends, or coworkers can capture lasting memories.
Absolutely! We offer flexible packages that can be tailored to your specific needs, whether you want additional characters, decorations, or a longer visit. Just let us know your preferences!
Rides in the North Pole Cruiser are a special one-on-one experience with Santa in his open-top, Volkswagen-style North Pole golf cart. Each guest receives a short, personalized ride with Santa, creating a memorable moment away from the crowd.
During the ride, Santa takes time to learn the guest’s wish list, ask a few fun questions, and share a little North Pole conversation. It’s a relaxed, meaningful interaction designed to feel personal and unforgettable.
Each ride includes the opportunity for a quick photo, capturing a unique memory that goes beyond a traditional meet & greet.
For younger guests, one parent may ride along with the child if desired, adding comfort and making it a shared family moment.
We offer a variety of beloved themed characters to complement your event and create an unforgettable experience. Current favorites include Cindy Lou Who, Princess Elsa, Princess Anna, Cinderella, and more. Have a specific character in mind? Let us know — we’re happy to discuss availability and customization options to match your theme.
We proudly serve the entire DFW area with in-person events, bringing holiday magic to everyone.
