Track Santa's Visits Around Falls Church

FALLS CHURCH, VA—Santa Claus is coming to town. Yes, even before Christmas Eve.

In the coming days, the jolly old Saint Nick is paying visits to those on his nice list around the City of Falls Church. Every night from Dec. 15-23, Santa goes out on the town from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. atop a Falls Church Volunteer Fire Department truck.

If you hear Christmas tunes and fire truck sirens, it probably means Santa is outside your home. But to be prepared ahead of time, there's a Santa tracker. See a map of Santa's schedule here and stay up to date on Falls Church Volunteer Fire Department's Facebook.

Visits in the City of Falls Church will happen Dec. 15-19, and makeup times will be rescheduled in cases of inclement weather. If all the Falls Church visits happen on schedule, Santa will visit surrounding neighborhoods in Arlington and Fairfax counties. Onlookers are asked to stay on sidewalks and be ready to get free candy canes.

Here's a peek at Santa's ride on the fire truck that Patch spotted last December.
