How the tracker works
Santa follows midnight west. He launches at 10:00 North Pole Time on December 24, when it becomes midnight in the first time zone, and visits 29 time zones in turn, finishing about 25 hours later. Every number here comes from the same workshop inventory you can see on the rest of the portal: if Plush & Stuffing is behind, the sleigh carries fewer plush toys until it catches up.
For grown-ups: this is a story, not a real-time location. It works the same way for every visitor, uses no location data, and sets no cookies. Season 2026.
