Santa bus Tracker

Xmas bus

It's that time of the year again... Santa has arrived at the First Bus depot and will shortly be making his way around Sheffield, Doncaster and Rotherham, along with his magical elf on board - spreading festive joy throughout the region.

Catch him on the dates and times below before he has to depart back to the North Pole to deliver presents on Christmas Eve.

If you spot Santa and the magical elf, tag us in your pictures on Facebook @First South Yorkshire
