Every holiday season, thousands of fire departments, city organizations, and community groups around the world use Glympse to bring the magic of Santa’s journey to life. From small-town parades to full-scale citywide events, the Glympse Santa Tracker helps families follow Santa’s sleigh in real time, keeping everyone informed, connected, and filled with holiday cheer.
This year, we’ve made it even easier to personalize your Santa Tracker experience.
Introducing Pre-Set Customization Options
We know how busy the holiday season can be, so we’ve added ready-made customization options for anyone creating a Santa Tracker tag.
Instead of designing every detail from scratch, organizers can now choose from preset avatars, color palettes, and logo templates, all designed to fit the classic holiday look and feel.
- Avatars: Select from a variety of festive Santa designs, from traditional styles to modern variations.
- Colors: Pick from a curated palette of reds, greens, golds, and winter neutrals for a polished, seasonal look.
- Logos: Choose a pre-made “Santa Tracker” logo that best represents your community or event, ranging from elegant script to bold lettering.
The new customization screen allows you to mix and match your favorite combinations with just a drag and drop, making setup faster and easier than ever.
Keep It Custom: Upload Your Own Design
While Glympse now offers built-in design options, you’re still welcome to upload your own avatar, logo, and color scheme for a completely unique experience.
Whether you’re continuing a long-standing community tradition or creating your first Santa route, these preset tools save time without limiting creativity.
Why Communities Love Glympse Santa Tracker
- The Glympse Santa Tracker is more than just a way to follow Santa on a map, it’s a way to bring neighborhoods together during the holiday season. Residents can see, in real time, when Santa will be passing by their street. No app download required, completely free to view.
- For organizations, it’s a powerful tool to connect with the community. Many groups use their Santa Tracker to encourage donations for local food banks or toy drives, sharing reminders right through the experience as Santa makes his rounds. See Firehouse blog here.
For families, the magic is personal. Kids can watch Santa’s sleigh move closer and closer, knowing exactly when to head outside to wave and say hello. It’s a moment of excitement and connection that makes every stop along the route feel special.
