Who we are
Santacon KCK is Kansas City, Kansas's annual celebration of holiday absurdity and community generosity. Every December, hundreds of Santas descend on Historic Strawberry Hill for a day of pub crawling, dancing, and giving back.
We're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit — which means every ticket sold, every dollar donated, and every merch item purchased flows directly into programs that support KCK families throughout the year. Dress ridiculous. Do good. Repeat.
What's happening
Choose your adventure — or do both. A rowdy afternoon crawl through Strawberry Hill, then an elegant evening soirée with dinner, dancing, and a live band.
Dress as Santa and crawl through 11 of KCK's best bars. Exclusive drink specials at every stop. Wristband included with ticket. Self-guided and self-paced.
