"We had a BLAST!"
"My daughter's favorite part of Sips & Sweets with Santa was definitely the Grinch & Cindy Lou from The Storybook Character Company. My favorite part of course was the delicious craft brews from AleSmith!"
- Jen
"Noon Year is Pure FUN!"
Let's face it, which parent truly makes it to the stroke of midnight? This event is pure genius, and we're buzzing with anticipation for 2025. It's a blast for parents and children alike, with a dash of pure magic for all!
- Tim
"Must Attend!"
We have been attending San Diego Moms' events for years. Sips & Sweets with Santa and their annual Noon Year are by far our most favorite events. Our family loves that they create experiences where the kids have a blast and parents are able to have som serious fun too.

How does the Photo with Santa work and what is included?
Upon arrival your arrival you will be handed a photo ticket, which includes a 10-minute window of time that you will need to head to the photography area to line up for your photo. Our goal is to only have 5-6 families lined up at any one time. So if you are the first to arrive at the event at 10am, you can head straight to snap your photo with Santa as you will be given the 10am-10:10am photo ticket time and we will pass those tickets out chronologically and in order of arrival.
Included in the ticket is a SINGLE family photo with Santa. You can choose to send just the kids, have the entire family. You may add on additional pose for an additional fee at the time you purchase your ticket or if the photographer has time you can do so at the event directly with the photographer. We just need to take these into account to ensure we can capture everyone's photo in a timely manner!
In the small chance this is an option it would only take place towards the close of the event. We don't allow add-ons (unless the tickets aren't' sold out) after the event starts.
