Santa tracking is better at Santa Update simply because it comes from the North Pole.
Real Santa tracking does not come from a military command center, a government entity, a search engine, a company or from outer space.
It comes from where Santa comes from — the North Pole.
And it happens the way Santa would like you to do it. Santa wants you involved. When you track Santa you can help Santa just by talking to the North Pole and helping Santa to know what is going on in your locality.
The more Santa knows the faster he goes – and the faster he goes the more people he can get to on Christmas Eve.
Wouldn’t you like to help Santa? Wouldn’t you like to help others? Especially at Christmas?
Then track Santa for Santa.
We have been tracking Santa from the North Pole since 1991. That’s longer than anyone else online!
Allow us to give you a couple of other reasons why following Santa on SantaUpdate is better than anywhere else:
- First of all, Santa has a big story to tell. Following Santa on Christmas Eve on just a map is no way to know that story.
- The story constantly changes. Have you ever noticed that other Santa trackers only give you updates on Santa’s position — and nothing else?
- It’s never the same. Have you ever noticed that what happens this year on other Santa trackers looks just like what happened last year? Isn’t that a little weird? There just has to be more to Santa’s story than that!
- It’s not just Santa. The miracle of Santa Claus does not happen with Santa alone, you know. There are elves. Millions of them. And each has a story of helping Santa. It’s good to understand that before Santa takes to the skies.
- It’s also YOU. Don’t wait until your stocking in hung before wondering what Santa, the reindeer and the elves have been up to. They do what they do for YOU. Why not engage with them and celebrate a little with them?
- Track Santa as a family. For 35 years the North Pole has been helping families to track Santa together. In fact, many of those children from 35 years ago track Santa through SantaUpdate.com with their children. It’s a fun all-family tradition.
- Learn how the North Pole works. We’re here to provide answers. Do you have questions? ASK THEM.
- Understand Operation Merry Christmas. That’s what Santa’s calls the mission.
- Learn stuff. Tracking Santa on Santa Update means understanding geography, time zones, and something we call Sectors. It’s all bigger than just countries. It’s Santa bringing the world together.
- Track Santa with the world. It comes together with a 2-day radio broadcast heard in more than 160 countries around the world. It’s a unique commercial-free stream of Christmas music interrupted only with our exclusive radio news reports from North Pole Radio News. We tell the inside story of the North Pole, Santa, his elves and reindeer as well as the outside story – eyewitness reports of Santa on Christmas Eve, interviews with Santa trackers and believers everywhere.
- It’s free. Yes, there are extras you can get. But Santa believes everyone can track Santa without charge.
More than a Map
Finding a reliable Santa tracker is essential for following the big journey from the North Pole. While many apps offer basic maps, our tracking system provides real-time data directly from North Pole Flight Command. We prioritize accuracy and speed to ensure you never miss a moment of Santa’s flight across the globe.
What Makes Our Santa Tracking Different?
Most trackers rely on cached data or radar imaging but our system uses live updates to show exactly where the reindeer are at any given second. We monitor the sleigh, the reindeer and even Santa himself. Additionally, we have a global News Department, with reporter elves contributing from every part of the world and led by North Pole Radio News whose Tracking Santa Around the World radio show is heard in 160+ countries during the two full days of broadcasting. By utilizing advanced mapping technology and North Pole weather stations, we provide the most detailed look at Santa’s progress available online.
