Santa parade in July!

You've heard of Christmas in July, but a meeting of the Santas? That's exactly what is taking place in Denmark until the 25th of July. Apparently, an amusement park in Denmark hosts Santas from all over the world, with Santas hailing from Canada, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Germany and even Japan and Australia. This year, they're also celebrating their 50th Anniversary!

The Congress of Santas includes a grand parade through the Danish amusement park, a swim for the Santas, several parades, and a ride through the city centre of the Danish capital Copenhagen.

According to AllThingsChristmas.com, "Besides Christmas itself, this is their most important event and the only time they can meet to discuss important issues such as better rooftop parking conditions and standards of chimney-cleaning." Santa Jan Siegersted explains “In December we are too busy to meet. In July, however, we don’t have much to do, so this means that we have plenty of time to meet and have a good time.”
