Jingle All the Way was filmed mostly in Minnesota, with many scenes shot around the Twin Cities area (Minneapolis and Saint Paul) and nearby Edina. Notable locations include the Mall of America in Bloomington for the mall scenes, Mickey’s Diner in downtown Saint Paul, the Nicollet Island Pavilion and nearby Hennepin Avenue Bridge in Minneapolis, and a radio station scene shot at 360 Wabasha Street in Saint Paul. Additional filming took place at Falcon Heights Elementary School and in residential areas near Edina, providing many of the suburban exteriors seen in the film. The ending parade sequence was filmed in California, rather than the Minnesota locations used for most of the production.
