It’s nice to get those holiday cards in the mail, and even nicer when they are stamped with the official Santa Claus holiday postmark.
Just east of Evansville is the famous small-town post office is the only one in the world with the Santa Claus name and receives over 400,000 pieces of mail in December.
The Santa Claus Post Office has offered the unique postmark every holiday season since 1983. Each year, a local high school student designs the picture postmark for use on Christmas cards and other mail from the Santa Claus Post Office during the holiday season.
The 2022 postmark is available only in Santa Claus, Indiana, on working days between December 1 and December 24. Those interested in getting the special cancellation on their holiday mail can find the guidelines here.
Santa Claus, Indiana, will celebrate the holiday season with festive events throughout town during the first three weekends of December. Traditional events include Santa Claus Land of Lights, Christmas Lake Village Festival of Lights, Santa Claus Arts & Crafts Show, and more. Find event details at SantaClausInd.org/Events.
