BREAKFAST WITH SANTA EVENT DETAILS

Join us on Saturday, December 20, 2025, at the Owensboro Convention Center for a morning packed with holiday cheer! Bring the family to enjoy a delicious breakfast of fluffy pancakes, savory sausage, and your choice of orange juice or coffee. Snap a photo with Santa, share your wish list, and make memories to last all season long. Kids can write letters to Santa and enjoy festive coloring fun.

Breakfast runs from 7:30 – 10:00 AM, proudly sponsored by German American Bank and The Country Station 92.5 WBKR. It’s the perfect way to start your Christmas countdown!

“It’s hard to believe that it’s that time of the year already for Santa to make his stop at the German American Bank Ballroom,” said Tony Krampe, Market President – Owensboro Market, German American Bank. “We are proud to sponsor this fun and festive event again for our local families.”

HOLIDAY FUN FOR EVERYONE

Let your little ones meet Santa and Mrs. Claus for a special free photo moment. Just don’t forget your phone or camera! Each child will receive a small gift (they’ve made the Nice List, after all!).

After photos, kids can stop by the letter-writing station to share their Christmas wishes and enjoy some festive coloring activities.

GIVE BACK WITH CHRISTMAS WISH

The Country Station 92.5 WBKR will be on-site collecting donations for Christmas Wish, a beloved community program that helps bring holiday magic to local children. Guests are encouraged to get a new, unwrapped toy or make a cash donation to support this cause.

Since 1976, Christmas Wish has ensured that every child in the tri-state area experiences the joy of a visit from Santa. Thanks to the generosity of our community, more than 8,000 children found gifts under their trees last year. With your help, we can make this year even brighter!

“Breakfast with Santa is one of those events that truly captures the spirit of the season,” stated Owensboro Convention Center General Manager Jeff Esposito. “Seeing families laugh, kids light up when they meet Santa, and neighbors come together makes it a special morning for everyone!”
