At the top of the world, where the Northern Lights dance in the heavens, Snowy Sleigh Bells can be heard in the distance and polar bears drinking Coca-Cola, there resides a cute little cottage where a jolly man, whose belly shakes like a bowl full of jelly, resides. Where his helpers, ranging from toy-making elves to his flying reindeer, his Italian donkey, a racist caricature, a child-eating demon in chains and host of other easily marketable icons reside. Christmas Town, also known as Santa's Workshop or simply the North Pole, is the domain of Santa Claus and his many helpers. It's a place where it's Christmas Every Day. It is where the toys are made to be given to the children of the world, the reindeer are kept and cared for, the sleigh kept properly lubed and buffed, many radio stations that play Christmas Songs all year round, a cocoa/eggnog pub and an industrial strength cookie bakery that keeps Santa's insatiable hunger for cookies at bay. As Technology Marches On and the world population grows, interpretations of what this place is like changes too. Computer systems to simplify the naughty and nice lists, assembly lines to streamline the process, engines on the sleigh and molten cauldrons full of melted plastic to be molded into the latest Optimus Prime. If the workshop is run by Badass Santa, then expect the place to be a fortified fortress full of jolly toe-missiles, Christmas ornaments with lit fuses and a vault full of dangerous toys to be used to fend off whatever means their mission harm. If the workshop is an absolute hell to work in, then it's Santa's Sweatshop. If Christmas Town is featured as a level in a video game, it is always a Sub-Trope to Slippy-Slidey Ice World. If it isn't Christmas yet and you want to see another holiday world, go visit Halloween Town. Related to Polar Bears and Penguins. |

The North Pole in Arthur Christmas is portrayed as a facsimile of a modern day factory and bunker. The North Pole holds the underground command centre of all of Christmas. There are the elf homes and the Clause living quarters and the S-1 dock and it has a big command centre were Steve runs the Christmas operation with millions of elves at the helm working away making a list and checking it twice. | |

In EverQuest II, the Village of Frostfellnote the Everquest franchise's expy of Christmas is an alternate dimension that becomes accessible to non-Frostfell-related beings only around the month of December. It's a frozen lagoon dotted with islands which are in turn dotted with evergreen trees, multicolored faerie-lights, and random presents full of materials for in-game crafting. Small elves and flying reindeer run around as well. | |

Christmas Town in Kingdom Hearts II is only accessible through a door in the Halloween Town world. Much like Halloween Town, Christmas Town is overrun with Heartless (albeit by Christmas-themed versions of Halloween Town's Heartless), and while Santa Claus is sweet and polite to Sora and his gang, he still holds a chip on his shoulder towards Jack Skellington after he tried stealing Christmas the first time. This is taken further in this game's Final Mix, where Sora, Donald, and Goofy wear Christmas themed outfits while in the world, in contrast to their getup while in Halloween Town, all while a Christmas-y tune plays in the background. | |

In the Barbarella universe, the planet Christmas was settled as a yule-themed family-friendly resort, ruled by the benevolent Niklaus von Klaus. Unfortunately, it was founded in a lawless area of space, and thus its visitors consist mainly of criminals who come to the planet to conduct business. Klaus decided to roll with it, letting the criminals conduct business in his village, but subject to extremely strict rules against violence. | |

Rickety Town is a fairground in the center of CarnEvil, located between the Big Top and the Freak Show. The player explores most of the rides and attractions here, the only exception being a rocket next to the snowglobe ice rink. While the level is presented as a Christmas-themed theme park, the game's setting is presented as a Circus of Fear, so the trope is Played for Horror, including a monstrous Bad Santa/The Krampus boss battle on a skating-rink. | |

SCP Foundation: This is Played for Horror. SCP-784 – Christmas Cheer is a town somewhere in Texas, that is decorated with Christmas all year round regardless of the weather. It is an anomalous location where the inhabitants are Ambiguously Human and assimilate those who do not exhibit the right level of Christmas cheer. This includes things as minor as wishing someone "Happy Holidays" rather than "Merry Christmas", singing the wrong lyrics to a carol, or not showing enough enthusiasm for a gift. | |

The Hogfather's Castle of Bones is the Discworld version. It got its name when the Hogfather delivered pork products rather than toys, but is actually made of ancient ice, vaguely shaped like bones. When it appears in Hogfather it's temporarily abandoned, but under normal circumstances, it's supposed to be a blaze of light and noise, as well as having "jolly little buggers in pointy hats and red and green suits, hitting wooden toys unconvincingly yet rythmically with hammers". | |

In the DuckTales (2017) episode "How Santa Stole Christmas!", flashbacks show Scrooge and Santa meeting in a wintery town whose residents resemble Christmas Elves even before they reveal their pointy ears. Once Santa outlines his plans to give toys around the world on Christmas, they naturally volunteer to help. | |

Reine from Them's Fightin' Herds is a downplayed version. Sure there's no candy canes on every corner and no Santa equivalent seen but it's a snow covered town mostly populated by reindeer, who have little elf-like servants called Winter Sprites, and they have a mysterious ritual where eight elite deer (all named after Santa's reindeer) pull a sleigh through the sky once a year. The city looks a lot more like a tradition Christmas town visually in holiday updates. | |

Christmas Broadcasting is the first level in Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko, a Christmas-themed Slippy-Slidey Ice World. The level takes place in the North Pole based on shows and films that are traditionally shown during Christmas or otherwise based around it (hence its name), such as those made by Rankin/Bass. | |

The North Pole is a central location in all three The Santa Clause films. It is a large metropolis populated by child-like elves and flying reindeer. It is all owned by the current Santa Claus (in the film's case, Scott Calvin) and acts as a meeting place for other iconic magical beings (Mother Nature, Father Time, Jack Frost, etc). | |

Santa's Toy Factory from the Codename: Kids Next Door Christmas Episode "Operation: N.A.U.G.H.T.Y." is at first portrayed as the traditional Santa's workshop, with jolly elves singing as they hand-craft toys in a log cabin. It is revealed later that a lot of the process has been automated and modernized, the sleigh and reindeer replaced with a teleportation system that instantly sends the toys to their homes, Santa the only person strong enough to withstand the strain it causes. | |
