ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI- Premier and Minister of Finance Dr the Hon Natalio D. Wheatley (R7) brought Christmas cheer to the children of the Virgin Islands (VI) as he was transformed into Santa Claus, minus the big belly, for Christmas in the City.
Premier Wheatley joined the Christmas in the City celebrations on Shoreway Drive on December 5, 2025, passing out gifts to children between the ages of 0 and 10 years.
The children had the opportunity to sit on Santa’s lap and take a picture with him.
The children were photographed with big smiles as they accepted the gifts Santa shared with them, bringing the joy of Christmas to their hearts.
The 27th edition of Christmas in the City was held on Friday, December 5, 2025 and Saturday, December 6, 2025.
Several small businesses were also present at the annual two-day event, allowing Virgin Islanders to get a head start on their Christmas gift shopping.
