The experience is made even more adventurous and comforting by the red helmets and Christmas tea offered by our elves at the entrance. As one family wrote to us, "Our children were convinced they had actually arrived at the North Pole."
An incredible village with installations, elves, and professional entertainment to truly experience the Christmas spirit. A journey through nature, history, fantasy, and tradition. For the whole family. Since 2009, it's been a family favorite. Always new every year.
