Christmas in the Country and Santa's Visit
Panguitch's Christmas in the Country with a visit from Santa, December 5, 2026.
Bryce Canyon Country lists Christmas in the Country and Santa's Visit in Panguitch for December 5, 2026. It is the centerpiece of Panguitch's holiday season, pairing the town's Christmas market and community programming with a Santa visit for the kids. Note that Parowan runs a separately organized event with a similar name in late November, so check which one you are driving to. Panguitch is about 35 minutes from Duck Creek Village Inn, and December makes the trip a proper snow-country outing.
