As the first department store to feature animated window

enthrall and entertain. Since 1874, Macy’s has created whimsical
worlds in the windows that bring the spirit of the season to life
in animated fashion. A new theme will adorn the windows at Macy’s

Herald Square (Thursday, November 17 – Sunday, January 1) and

Macy’s Santaland at Home – Delivering Holiday Cheer
Nationwide
Santaland’s digital-only experience returns, with an all-new
immersive adventure for kids everywhere as they virtually visit
Santa’s Workshop via Macy’s Santaland at Home. Available at
macys.com/HolidayCelebrations, kids will enter a magical snow globe
portal that whisks them to Santa’s Village and Workshop for a very
special holiday treat. Guided by Santa’s elves, kids can choose
their own interactive journey as they explore the magical land.
From augmented reality activities like decorating their own
personal trees and sharing them with loved ones (via Macy’s
Santaland at Home, Facebook and Instagram) to fun interactive games
across Santa’s workshop, kids will have a blast during their
virtual escapades. A visit to Santaland would not be complete
without an audience with the jolly one himself, and kids will meet
Santa through an interactive video and have the chance to take and
share a special Santa selfie. Free to all, Macy’s Santaland at Home
will be available beginning Friday, November 25 through Saturday,
December 24. To access the site, a supervising adult must create an
account, provide the appropriate permissions to activate the
program including approving access to the hardware for the
interactive elements and selecting their preferred Santa
experience.
Starting Monday, December 5, the virtual Macy’s Santa fun will
extend to the metaverse this year via an immersive virtual reality
quest on Meta’s Horizon Worlds that allows holiday explorers to
roam Santa’s home, feed the reindeer, take part in playful snowball
showdowns and more.
Macy’s Holiday Happiness is brought to fans in part by Balsam
Hill®, Entenmann’s® and Hallmark Channel. All entries to Macy’s
holiday experiences are free. For more information and to make
