Santa in the City are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to join our team for London’s BIGGEST Santa run

Help us transform the streets of London into a sea of red, as thousands of Santas pass iconic landmarks like St Paul’s Cathedral, Millennium Bridge, and the Tower of London to raise incredible funds for charity. If you love Christmas, have a vibrant energy, and want to support some great causes, we’d love to have you on board.

📅 Event Details

• Dates: Tuesday 8th, Wednesday 9th, and Thursday 10th December 2026

• Location: Starting & finishing at Paternoster Square, London

• Shift Times: 5pm-9pm. You can volunteer for one, two, or all three nights!

✨ What We’re After

Be the festive eyes, ears, and voices along our 3K and 5K routes! You will keep our Santas safe, point them in the right direction, and provide high-energy cheering to keep spirits bright.

• Event Staff & Registration Elves 🎟️

Help us welcome participants, handle registration check-ins, hand out Santa suits, and reward finishers with their well-deserved medals at Paternoster Square!
