Christmas at Gaylord Palms

Disclaimer- This post has been sponsored by Gaylord Palms. All opinions are entirely my own.

Orlando is not just about theme parks. Every year me and my family love spending the holiday season at Gaylord Palms especially at the atrium view room. Gaylord Palm celebrates Christmas with a bang. There is never a dull moment. And you never have to step out of here to experience ALL the fun. 

ICE! returns this holiday season. Step into a wonderland carved by expert artisans out of two million pounds of colorful ice. You'll see the story of Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas!™ in larger-than-life sculptures and even plunge down slides made entirely of ice in this Gaylord Hotels original experience.

It's safe to say that this is hands down my family's favorite time to visit Gaylord Palms and it was no different this year. We scavenger hunted, walked through ICE , did snowball fights, slid down the ice and ate the most delicious food. I was invited to their media event and was able to sample all the amazing Signature dishes served at their restaurants. 

Below listed are some of the amazing events going on right now-

Cirque spirit of Christmas 

This Cirque-styled Christmas show features dazzling acrobatics, feats of flexibility, and high-flying stunts. This Broadway-style spectacle centers around Noel, a child dismayed and distressed by the hustle and bustle of the holidays. Trying to recapture her lost love of the season, she is visited by spirits who bring back the true meaning of the season in energetic, dreamlike chapters.

Feast with the Grinch

Join everyone's favorite green and grouchy Grinch from the famous Dr. Seuss book and animated featurette, How The Grinch Stole Christmas!™️, for a special character dining experience at Villa de Flora. And while the Grinch usually avoids the residents of Who-ville, he'll make a very special appearance at the breakfast, accompanied by his canine companion, Max.

Gingerbread Decorating Corner 

Don't wait -- make a date to decorate! Let your Christmas creativity run wild when you adorn tasty gingerbread. After you've reached confection perfection with your edible art, head over for a sweet meet-and-greet with Nutmeg, our very own gingerbread man.

Market square retail

Step into one of the largest Christmas stores in the state of Florida, shop to your heart's content, and find enough Christmas décor, apparel, ornaments, seasonal toys, plush, and holiday collectibles to fill Santa's sleigh!

Ice tubing

In this mechanized, snow play space you will slide through factory conveyor belts that have frozen solid and ride tubes down a thrilling plummet slide or hilly ice coaster at Snow Factory.

Snowball build and blast 

Real snowballs in Florida? With a little Christmas magic, you'll receive a tub of snow so you can build and toss real snowballs to boost the power of the snowmaking machines. Take your best aim at the targets and let the snowballs fly!

Naughty or nice escape room

Yuletide trickster Jack Frost is back with icy antics and has added your name to Santa's Naughty List, but he has a deal for you: Sneak into Santa's office and solve the riddles and you'll be able to erase your names from the Naughty List. You'll need to solve all the puzzles and dash away before St. Nick returns, or you might end up with a lump of coal in your stocking.

Mrs Claus Christmas tradition

Join the jolliest hostess of all for a fun-filled celebration of Christmas traditions. Delight in the retelling of the Christmas classic, 'Twas The Night Before Christmas, sing along to favorite holiday songs, and share a batch of Santa's favorite snack - warm, freshly-baked Christmas cookies and ice cold milk. Milk provided by T.G. Lee.
