Introducing Tall Santa

Taking holiday memories to new heights!

In a city full of holiday events and festive traditions, one figure stands above the rest—literally!

Meet Tall Santa: a towering 6’6” of genuine warmth, laughter, and holiday spirit created by Michael Sellers, a resident of Boston, MA. With a background in Off-Broadway and musical theater performance, a deep love for storytelling, and a gift for connecting with people of all ages, Tall Santa brings something truly special to every visit: a sense of wonder.

Whether he’s stepping into your home, leading a singalong at a corporate party, or delighting children through a screen, Tall Santa creates joyful moments that linger long after the cocoa is gone and the decorations are packed away.

Tall Santa typically works in the greater Boston area, but he is happy to appear within a 60-minute sleigh ride from Boston.

By the way, you can rest assured with Tall Santa in your home or at your corporate event. He is fully insured, and each confirmed booking comes with a copy of Santa’s background check and insurance policy. Your peace of mind is Tall Santa’s top priority during the busy holiday season.

Home Visits with Children

Imagine the joy on a child’s face when Santa walks through the door, calling them by name and complimenting their kindness. From heartfelt conversations to wide-eyed wonder, each visit is crafted with care and sprinkled with just the right amount of Christmas magic.

  • Photo ops and keepsake moments for the entire family
  • Holiday storytelling brought to life with theatrical flair
  • Live singalongs with Santa on ukulele or piano (if available)
  • Personalized greetings using parent-submitted details (optional)

These visits typically last anywhere between 30–45 minutes and are designed to create meaningful connections, not just a quick photo.

It’s a meaningful way to bring magic to any setting, from across the city or across the country.

About Tall Santa’s Beard

The truth is that Tall Santa doesn’t sport his own beard. But before you start making calls to the North Pole, an explanation: Tall Santa rocks what we call a designer beard, handcrafted from real human hair and styled to snowy perfection. This isn’t your average party-store fluff—this is high-end follicular artistry. In fact, the beard and wig are made by the same company that makes custom hair pieces for theatrical productions and films!

Why go designer? Because not all natural beards are created equal. Some are patchy. Some are discolored. But Tall Santa’s beard? It’s glorious. It’s gleaming. It’s immune to cookie crumbs. It’s the kind of beard that makes kids gasp and parents whisper, “That’s the real Santa!” So while it may not have sprouted from his own chin, it was lovingly created by someone who believes. And really, isn’t that the most magical thing of all?
