The Cacophony Society began SantaCon in San Francisco way back in 1994. It has spread to the the farthest reaches of the world since then. During the month of December, you can see hundreds of Santas running amuck in Beijing, Belfast, Honolulu, London, Melbourne, Montreal, Munich, New York, Paris, and 50 other cities. 
There were 70,000 Santas at the Moscow Santacon this year. There's no holding back the Red Tide!
As my good friend Viola Sutanto (the super-talented graphic designer of invitations) at Chewing the Cud said, "You can never have too many Santas!"
Here is a taste of what a portion of the San Francisco SantaCon 2008 looked like.
Santa Is On His Way

My good friend Duncan Reyes of f. duncan reyes events by design sent me this photo of SantaCon 2006 taken by Bradford Shepherd. As the bride and groom emerged from St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, they were indeed surprised to see Santas everywhere!
