Step into the magical world of Santa's Surprise Squad, a flash mob dance group on a mission to raise awareness and support for foster children during the Christmas season!

discover the magic of surprise

We’re Santa’s Surprise Squad! Founded in 2023, right out of Tracy, California. Every Christmas season, we hit the streets across the Central Valley–Bay Area Corridor with one goal: bring the magic back. Through pop-up flash mobs, we spread cheer in the most unexpected places and remind people what the season’s really about. And every year, we partner with a foster agency to raise awareness and support for kids in the foster care system, because every child deserves some holiday magic!

who we are

A flash mob is a surprise performance where a group of people suddenly come together in a public space to perform a choreographed dance , leaving bystanders stunned and delighted. It starts subtly — people going about their day — and then, like magic, music plays, and the performers burst into action. It’s exciting, spontaneous, and over just as quickly as it began, leaving everyone wondering, Did that really just happen? Will YOU be lucky enough to witness it?

what we do

Our mission is to bring joy and support to foster kids during the Christmas season. As we dance through the streets, we aim to raise awareness and support for the needs of foster children, ensuring they experience the same magical Christmas as every other child.

But that's not all – we're on a mission to reignite the enchanting magic of the holiday season. Creating moments that bring back the warmth and wonder of Christmas for both our performers and the community.
Every year, we partner with a foster agency to bring joy to children in care.
