A place to visit Santa Claus in Sendai

Where can I visit Santa Claus in Sendai? If you are looking for somewhere to get a photo with Santa Claus in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture, the Ikea Sendai Store has a nice Santa Claus photo opportunity. Santa Claus will visit this Ikea four times this December.

The dates of the Santa Claus visit are Saturday December 13th, Sunday December 14th, Saturday December 20th and Sunday December 21st 2025. He will visit the first floor entrance area between 12 and 12.30 pm each day. He will give children a commemorative sticker of their visit.

Some of the Ikea have stipulations to visiting Santa Claus, but this branch doesn't appear to. It is a free event. The Ikea Sendai Store is about a three minute walk from JR Nagamachi station on the Tohoku line and about a five minute walk from Subway Nagamachi station on the Sendai Tozai line.
