A Holiday Tradition with Proven Success: Glympse’s Santa Tracker
Each year, towns across the globe host Santa parades, filling the streets with excitement as families gather to catch a “glympse” of Santa’s arrival. In 2023, Glympse’s Santa Tracker became a key part of these celebrations, offering a fun and convenient way for people to track Santa’s real-time location during local parades and events. Whether in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, or the Americas, families used the app to stay connected to the holiday cheer and ensure they never missed the magic of Santa’s visit.
The Georgetown Fire Department in Massachusetts has been bringing the magic of Christmas to town with its festive holiday Santa parades, and 2023 was no different—except it was. Despite the rain, families didn’t have to stand out in the cold waiting for Santa’s arrival. They could see his exact location in real-time through the Glympse app. This feature was a game-changer, allowing families to track Santa’s journey across the streets and know exactly when to head outside to wave to Santa.
The Santa Tracker was more than just a fun tool—it allowed entire communities to participate in the excitement of the holiday season. People could stay warm and cozy at home, while still being part of the action. And it wasn’t just the Georgetown Fire Department benefiting from this incredible tool. Families across the world used the app to track Santa and experience the magic from the comfort of their homes.
While the app’s ability to track Santa was amazing, it also provided some additional benefits for local organizations. The Georgetown Fire Department used Glympse’s Premium Tags to customize their Santa Tracker with their logo, event details, and festive messages from Santa. Local sponsors like daycares and retail stores were able to support the event, making it more affordable for the organizers and allowing them to offer something special to the community.
Ultimately, the Glympse Santa Tracker turned out to be a holiday success in more ways than one. It allowed communities to feel connected, even if they couldn’t be physically present, and helped organize a smooth, joyful event for all.
The magic of tracking Santa’s journey has quickly become a beloved holiday tradition in towns across the world.
