About Santa’s Cave
Designed by a dedicated team of local volunteers & sponsored by the Loxton Waikerie District Council, the Waikerie Institute & Soldiers Memorial Hall is transformed each November.
Entry is a gold coin donation which is vital in keeping the cave running.
What to expect
Santa’s Cave is a collection of Christmas displays designed by the committee of currently 9 members. Many of the displays have interactive elements and plenty of photo opportunities. In 2023 we commenced school holiday activities. While you are moving around the cave, be sure to check out Santa’s Shop. The shop stocks an abundance of unique and locally handmade items as well as others you would expect from a Christmas Shop. Oh and did we mention Santa is in residence? How silly of us! Of course he is. No fees or bookings are required but remember to bring your own camera to capture the memories.
