 Where is Santa Right Now? Track His 2024 Christmas Flight with NORAD

It’s Christmas Eve, and Santa Claus is preparing for his annual global journey from the North Pole to deliver gifts to children everywhere.

Using the official NORAD Santa Tracker, families can follow Santa's every move throughout Christmas Eve 2024.

Track Santa Live: Where is Santa Right Now?

The NORAD Santa Tracker keeps the world updated with a live map of Santa’s location. Follow his progress on NORAD’s website or get updates via their social media channels, including Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and YouTube. Whether you’re asking "Where is Santa?" or just want to know how far he is from you, the NORAD Santa Tracker has you covered all day long.

When Will Santa Arrive at Your House?

Although the NORAD Santa Tracker lets you see where Santa is during his flight, it can't predict the exact time he'll reach your home. Santa Claus' route is a secret known only to him, but based on past years, NORAD estimates he typically arrives between 9 p.m. and midnight on Christmas Eve, ensuring that children are asleep when he delivers his gifts.

How Does the NORAD Santa Tracker Work?

The NORAD Santa Tracker uses advanced radar technology and satellites, the same systems NORAD uses to monitor and defend North American airspace. The Santa Tracker is powered by the North American Warning System, a network of 47 radar points across Canada and Alaska. The moment Santa lifts off from the North Pole, NORAD starts tracking his journey across the globe.

Want to know "Where is Santa?" in real-time? You can call Santa's Phone Number at 1-877-HI-NORAD (1-877-446-6723) to speak with a NORAD operator and get live updates. The NORAD Tracks Santa Operations Center is open from 6 a.m. to midnight Eastern Time on December 24.
