Best of Florida Christmas

As the Orlando host to the Christmas holiday, Gaylord Palms Resort offers a slate of activities sure to make you "merry and bright", as part of its Best of Florida Christmas celebration. This year's program will include 46 days of holiday revelry, including:

ICE!: This frozen family experience is Orlando's most unique holiday attraction, hand-carved from nearly TWO-million pounds of ice. Now in its 5th year, the wildly popular family experience gives guests an opportunity to visit a whimsical winter wonderland of interactive environments and larger-than-life, three-dimensional holiday scenes and sculptures, all hand-carved from ice! This year's experience features several new and revised scenes including a whimsical candy house, a frosty igloo...and an even longer ice slide!

ICE! Skating: This outdoor skating rink will offer a holiday tradition common only in northern climates. Skate rentals are included.

Luminescense - A Christmas Fantasy (live stage performance)
A heartwarming tale with inspired music that is as edgy as it is classic. Part rock and roll show, part holiday tale, part aerial exhibition, Luminescense – A Christmas Fantasy will bring a sense of joy, awe and wonderment to the holiday season.

Christmas in Florida: The County Wreath Collection: An exhibition of wreaths decorated to reflect Florida's diverse destinations, from coast to coast.

Hidden Holiday Gnome Hunt: Families can hunt throughout the Gaylord Palms atriums to spot cleverly hidden gnomes, each ready to celebrate the holiday season.

Visit Santa: Kids can take an opportunity to share their special Christmas wishes with Santa Claus in person (for an additional fee), or via email
