The Secret Behind Santa’s Workshop

Where Are Santa’s Toy Workshops Located?

• The main workshop is in Korvatunturi, a remote and secret part of northeastern Lapland.
• This area is the real home of Santa, his elves, and the place where Christmas magic happens.
• Because it’s filled with Christmas secrets, only Santa and his helpers are allowed in.

Why Is It Called Korvatunturi?

• In Finnish, “korva” means “ear” and “tunturi” means “fell” (a type of hill).
• The name comes from the hill’s shape: from a distance, it looks like an animal's ear sticking up.
• Santa says this helps him “hear all the children of the world.”

Holiday Helpers: Santa’s Reindeer and Christmas Magic

How Many Reindeer Does Santa Have?

• Santa’s reindeer are wild animals who run freely through the forests and hills near Korvatunturi.
• Santa humorously says, “there are maybe about as many as there are stars in the sky.”

Do Santa’s Reindeer Fly?

• Yes, but they only fly on Christmas night—because delivering presents across the world requires a little magic.

How Does Santa Deliver Gifts to Every Child in One Night?

• Santa and his team have centuries of experience in Christmas deliveries.
• They use “Christmas magic” and work with the world’s time zones to reach children everywhere.
• While some secrets remain unknown, Santa’s top goal is to make sure every child gets their presents on time.
