Dinner with Santa at Ruckus — Leesville
Join us for Dinner with Santa at Ruckus Pizza in Leesville, a festive community event designed to celebrate the holiday season. Families and children are invited to enjoy a casual meal while meeting Santa Claus in a relaxed and welcoming local setting. This event serves as a great way to kick off your holiday festivities with good food and seasonal cheer.
Santa arrives promptly at 6:00 p.m. to greet guests. You are welcome to take as many free photos with him as you like using your own phone or camera. Please note that while we offer a digital booking system for time slots, these are requested time frames rather than exact appointments. The event is focused on providing a convenient way for children to visit Santa without long wait times or professional photography costs.
This event is perfect for families looking for a low-stress holiday activity. The atmosphere is casual, energetic, and family-friendly. Please be aware that booking a time slot does not reserve a dining table at the restaurant. We encourage you to plan accordingly and arrive early to enjoy your dinner.
