A Country Christmas + ICE!

Bring your family to Gaylord Opryland for their 43rd annual holiday celebration, running through early January. This sprawling resort experience features twinkling lights across acres of grounds, with over 17 hours of activities and entertainment included. Families can enjoy ice skating, tubing, photos with Santa, horse-drawn carriage rides, and various holiday shows. The new ICE! exhibit showcases hand-carved scenes from Home Alone that you can walk through (separate ticket required, starting at $24.39). There's also a cirque-style show called "Pomp, Snow and Cirqueumstance" available on select dates with tickets beginning at $44.39. Pricing varies depending on which activities and attractions interest your family, and you don't need to be an overnight guest to participate. On certain dates throughout the season, visitors without reservations can explore the resort freely all day. On other peak days and weekends, arriving before 3 p.m. allows you to stay through the evening. With activities suited for all ages, from little ones to teens, there's something for every family to enjoy during this extended holiday season.
