Santa Mail is back for 2026! 🎅💌🎄 

Families can once again visit their local Australia Post store, including participating Licensed Post Offices (LPOs), to send a letter to Santa and get a little Christmas magic in return. 

Here’s how it works 👇 

🎄 Bring your letter to Santa into a participating Post Office between 11 November and 20 December and hand it to one of our helpers. 

💌 Get a reply from Santa on the spot, with a beautifully illustrated letter to take home. 

🎁 New for 2026, kids will receive a collectable! There’s a 1-in-10 chance of finding a rare Pip.

☀️ And this year, Santa Mail is going full Aussie Christmas with a Backyard BBQ theme and two new characters joining the fun. 

We've also partnered with Vision Australia so more children can enjoy Santa Mail, with large-text and braille replies from Santa.

Another year of helping deliver a little Christmas magic to communities across Australia. 🎅✨ 

🗓️ Sending presents too? Check domestic and international Christmas sending dates.
