What Makes Christmastime Different Than a Normal Visit to Santa's Village?

For those that visit Santa's Village in the summer, the Christmastime celebration transforms the park into a living, breathing recreation of the North Pole. The entire park is decorated with nearly one million colored lights. If that isn't enough to inspire a little cheer, Christmas carols can be heard throughout the park and visits from Santa, Mrs. Claus, and Rudolph happen throughout the day as well.

There's Some Added FREE Fun During Christmastime

And don't forget about the Elfabet game. It's a FREE park-wide scavenger hunt where kids will try to find all of the 26 elves in the park. In the bright summer sun, those elves can be easy to find, but when it's dark out, it can be a whole different story.
