WEST CHESTER, PA — This holiday season, Santa is trading in his sleigh for something a little more high-tech—a helicopter! The American Helicopter Museum & Education Center invites families to experience SantaFest on Saturday, December 6, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., a festive event where holiday magic meets aviation wonder.
At 11:00 a.m., all eyes will turn skyward as Santa makes his dramatic arrival by helicopter (weather permitting), accompanied by Mrs. Claus and ready to greet children in the museum’s vibrant Santa’s Workshop. Families are encouraged to bring their cameras to capture the perfect holiday moment as little ones share their wish lists with the jolly couple.
The celebration continues throughout the day with cheerful activities for guests of all ages. Enjoy holiday-themed crafts, seasonal films in the museum’s theatre, and hands-on STEM experiences that combine festive fun with discovery.
SantaFest is more than just a magical event—it’s also an opportunity to give back. The museum will once again serve as a proud drop-off site for Toys for Tots, inviting attendees to share the spirit of generosity with families in need.
Admission is $15 for adults and $14 for children, while museum members enjoy free entry. (ACCESS cards and library passes are not valid for this event.)
