Sidcup's Santa has gone hi-tech - and will be using a mobile tracking device when he begins his tour of the town today (December 1).
Kids will be able to track Father Christmas' progress, as he and his helpers do their street-to-street collection - which raised £12,000 last year.
Sidcup Rotary club president Norman Hamblyn said: "We are so pleased to be organising this event again.
"It is an important part of our fundraising calendar and brings joy, not only to the children, but our own club members who turn out every year whatever the weather.
"The sleigh is all lit up and Christmas music will be played.
TODAY'S TOP STORIES:
"Santa will be there with a cheery wave for everyone and sweets for the children and a huge number of charities in the borough, nationally and internationally will benefit."
Santa's street visits kick off at 6pm today, and run every couple of days until December 21. Check his route here.
He will cover Marlborough Park Ave, Burnt Oak Lane, Welbeck Ave, Chatsworth Ave, Burnt Oak Lane, Collindale Avenue, Montrose Ave and Cavendish Ave tonight.
