Check out these HILARIOUS Santa Fails!

We at Applause Entertainment take pride in our Santas. We’re 100% serious about providing great Santas for the perfect Christmas. We have a list of very specific rules when it comes to providing our customers and clients with the best, jolliest Santa possible, and our standards are very high. That’s why when we see epic Santa fails, we find them 100% HILARIOUS.

Still, we know the laughter is at the expense of someone’s ruined Christmas, so we’re here today to show you some hilarious Santa fails, and tell you how you can do better. Remember, these fails happened because people relied on unprofessional suppliers. Learn how to spot FAILS:

Avoid these FAILS for your Santa:

Santa makes an Entrance

Santa’s entrance is one of the biggest events during Christmas. When planning your Santa’s entrance, make sure it’s well organized, executed, and rehearsed. Taking the extra time to rehearse Santa’s entrance means you’ll avoid FAILS like in this video (for the good stuff, skip to 1:20):

His costume wasn’t even correct: he wasn’t wearing Santa belt and boots and had no roly-poly belly! You can see his bare skin around the ankles and wrists. If the organizers had just taken the time to rehearse their Santa’s entrance, they would have figured out how to avoid this EPIC fail. This FAIL completely shattered the magic of Santa Claus for every boy and girl present, and ruined Christmas for countless families!

The Friendly Santa

Speaking of friendly and approachable, it goes without saying that Santa Claus needs to also look like Santa Claus. And, believe it or not, Santa Claus tends to look like a human being. This Santa missed the memo:

Why in the world would you let such a nightmare near your children? Make sure you trust your supplier to have high standards on how their Santas look.

Santa’s Iconic Outfit

Santa has a very classic outfit: He is always seen in his Red-and-White suit, a big floppy Santa hat, black shiny belt and boots, and clean white gloves. He also has a lovely rosy complexion from how jolly he is. He’s also supposed to look alive. Again, this is not a FAIL you want at your Christmas:

If it wasn’t for the crying boy in his lap, you wouldn’t have even known that was supposed to be Santa Claus. The quality of Santa’s outfit is very important to his appearance, so make sure your Santa supplier dresses their Santas in beautiful, quality, clean and nice-smelling costumes.

These are just some of the important rules our Santas NEVER break when they go out to bring joy to children and adults alike. We want to see the Christmas cheer spread as far as possible, and that means providing the most professional and perfect Santas you can expect.

These are the Santa WINS you’re looking for:

We’re not blowing smoke up our chimneys, we want to show you what a proper Santa should look like. These are Santa Claus that are jolly and friendly, and look great in their wonderful costumes!

Santa’s outfit cannot be compromised – his gorgeous Red-and-White suit, his shiny black boots and clean white gloves, and flowing long beard, are all there, no matter what he does.

Even under all that beard, you can always tell our Santa is smiling. His friendly smile and charming ho-ho-ho conveys the spirit of Christmas, and you just know with such a friendly Santa Claus, your children will keep believing in the magic of Christmas. Santa loves all children, big or small. A good Santa is approachable and charming, and the kids will feel at ease near him. There’s nothing more heartwarming than a lovely Christmas photo of your children with Santa.

We’re so proud and happy to be trusted by so many families and companies, big and small, all across Australia. We always make sure our Santas are police-checked and children-friendly, insured, and wearing beautiful costumes, beards and wigs.

Trust in Professional Santa providers

You’ve seen what a really great Santa is supposed to look and feel like, now book him for your Christmas! Don’t end up as another FAIL on our (and Santa’s) list!
