South Dakota’s 2025 Christmas at the Capitol display is open to the public from 8am-10pm daily, including holidays and weekends, until Dec. 26.
This year’s display includes trees decorated by volunteers from communities, schools, churches, nonprofit organizations and state government offices using the theme “Songs of the Season.” The featured tree in the Capitol is a Colorado Blue Spruce donated by the Rogers family of Florence, SD.
Children are welcome to write letters to Santa at home and bring them to the Capitol. The letters can be deposited into Santa’s North Pole Mailbox, which will be located on the first floor by the First Ladies and First Gentlemen Exhibit.
