OZARK MOUNTAINS, Mo. (October 29, 2024) — Jingle all the way back to the magic of Christmases past at Silver Dollar City’s An Old Time Christmas, 6-time winner of USA Today’s “Best Theme Park Holiday Event.”
Be immersed in the nostalgia of childhood wonder as The City shines brighter than ever with more than 6.5 million lights lining nearly every board of every building. From Nov. 2 to Jan. 4, enjoy festive flavors around each corner, two Broadway-style shows, plus rides and attractions to ramp up your Christmas spirit. The holiday journey begins with Joy on Town Square, an 8-story Christmas tree light and music show that’s merry and bright! The electrifying production is synched to classic carols and displays angels, shepherds, ornaments and snowflakes 360 degrees around the tree and plays every 15 minutes each evening.
Just steps beyond Town Square, the park’s most concentrated light display, Christmas In Midtown® Light Spectacular, glitters and glows with more than1.5 million lights. That’s 145 miles of the brightest bulbs illuminating the center of The City with festive photo ops fitting of a Christmas card.
Broadway-style productions include A Dickens’ Christmas Carol, the Charles Dickens classic, complete with elaborate sets and special effects. The heartwarming story follows Ebenezer Scrooge one night as he encounters three spirits—the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future that will forever change his life. The final year of Coming Home for Christmas celebrates the season’s traditions with a live band and a talented cast of singers and dancers dazzling with nonstop Christmas cheer reminding us that the real magic of the season is spending time with friends and family.
The most famous reindeer of all leads Rudolph’s Holly Jolly™ Christmas Light Parade through City streets with colorful, costumed characters, including towering elves and candy canes, penguins and a troop of marching wooden soldiers. Guests can upgrade to two VIP Parade Experiences with fun and festive snacks. Join Rudolph and friends for a meet-and-greet and hot chocolate, or watch the parade with Rudolph’s best pal for the NEW Clarice’s Dessert Party.
Cheerful family entertainment continues at the Silver Dollar Saloon where high-kicking fun reigns with Frontier Fa-La-La Follies! Marvel at Tinker Junior’s Toy Shop, featuring a 12-foot talking tree or be immersed in the miracle of Christmas with the Living Nativity. Catch a ride on the Frisco Sing-Along Steam Train or catch up with the big guy himself at Santa’s Cottage presented by Arvest for a photo and experience you’ll never forget.
Warm up with wassail, hot chocolate and apple cider, and don’t miss two holiday buffet options: prime rib or a traditional turkey with dressing. Lunch with Santa is also back on select days. Sample other seasonal fares throughout The City with a Christmas Tasting Passport for $35 plus tax.
