The Department of National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces remind you that North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is ready to track Santa on December 24, 2024, for the program's 69th year. NORAD monitors and defends North American airspace 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year (24/7/365). On December 24, NORAD has one additional mission: tracking the safe flight and passage of one very special aviator, Santa Claus, as he makes his trip around the globe, delivering presents to children.
The NORAD Tracks Santa website features Santa's North Pole Village, which includes a holiday countdown, games, movie theatre, holiday music, web store, and more. The website is available in nine languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Chinese and Korean.
The official NORAD Tracks Santa app is available in the Apple App and Google Play stores. NORAD Tracks Santa will also be available on digital media platforms including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and X, and on contributor platforms Amazon Alexa, Bing, SiriusXM, and OnStar.
On December 24, trackers worldwide can call 1-877-HI-NORAD to ask our live operators about Santa's location from 6 a.m. to midnight MST. Throughout the day, website visitors will see Santa's flight from 4 a.m. to midnight MST.
