A place to visit Santa Claus in Osaka

Where can I visit Santa Claus in Osaka? If you are looking for somewhere to get a photo with Santa Claus in Osaka, the Ikea Tsuruhama Store has a nice Santa Claus photo opportunity. Santa Claus will visit this Ikea four times this December.

The dates of the Santa Claus visit are Saturday December 13th, Sunday December 14th, Saturday December 20th and Sunday December 21st 2025. He will visit the first floor entrance area between 2 and 3 pm each day. He will give children a commemorative sticker of their visit. A participation ticket will be given to 100 families / groups each day. First come, first served.

Some of the Ikea have stipulations to visiting Santa Claus, but this branch doesn't appear to. It is a free event. You can get a shuttle bus to the Ikea Tsuruhama Store from Umeda, Namba and Taisho. There is free parking for about 2100 cars. Official event page.

The photo is just an image and not from this event. Santa Claus is also visiting Premium Outlets in Osaka. You can find information for that Santa Claus on City-cost too.
