A Magical Journey Awaits You
After the incredible success of Halloweekend, we’re back with an all-new holiday adventure for the Biggest Holiday in the World! This season, step into the heart of the North Pole and join us in a one-of-a-kind interactive, artistic, and photographic experience designed to enchant visitors of all ages.
Explore, create, and let the magic of Christmas guide you through a North Pole town unlike any you’ve seen before. Wander freely, take on exciting quests, and enjoy your own special moment with Santa Claus himself!
What is the North Pole Adventure?
The North Pole Experience is an immersive, choose-your-own-adventure event that transports guests to a bustling North Pole town, complete with an elf bunkhouse, candy castle, historical museum, and elf workshop.
With no set path, guests are free to wander and discover each magical corner in their own way.
- Wander, Touch, and Pose: Explore at your own pace, interacting with various displays and capturing the magic at our many photo spots.
- Create: Visit one of our two creation stations. Write a letter to Santa at our wish-list station, or make a custom keepsake ornament by measuring and cutting ribbon to your or a loved one’s height.
- Take a Tour: Our friendly North Pole docents are ready to lead you through the town, sharing stories and historical details that bring the North Pole to life.
- Join a Quest: Choose one of three quests, each packed with puzzles and tricks designed to help save the North Pole.
