ClauWau
If we were to name an event that is modeled after Father Christmas, we would probably go with ClauWau, also known as Santa Claus World Championships. Each year, fans of Saint Nicholas celebrate the start of the winter season by dressing in red and white. Since the entry to the two-day Santa Claus-themed festivities is free, a huge crowd can be found at such championships. There are many Christmas contests, including climbing various structures, après-skiing, sled-racing, and many other snow sports.
The competition usually hosts 32 teams of four who take part in five events in the hopes of taking the winning crown in the end. For spectators, there are many other resort activities that they can do in addition to enjoying ClauWau. The event is a truly magical winter wonderland.
