I Love Christmas Movies

Anchoring Christmas fun is I Love Christmas Movies, an exclusive multi-sensory pop-up exhibition in collaboration with Warner Bros. Consumer Products allowing guests to experience beloved holiday movies, including The Polar Express, A Christmas Story, Elf, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, and The Year Without a Santa Claus, in a completely new way.

All designed with social distancing measures at the forefront, as guests young and young-at-heart navigate the multi-sensory exhibits, they will enjoy 15 fully immersive scenes complete with replicas of film props, audio clips and more, making participants feel as if they have stepped into part of the actual story.

In addition to our holiday event, visitors will be enchanted by the resort’s four-and-a-half acres of magically decorated, airy indoor atrium showcasing two million twinkling holiday lights, 15,000 shimmering ornaments, a Polar Express themed miniature train set specially designed by Lionel Trains, strolling entertainers, and a brand-new 52-foot tall towering Christmas tree featuring its own light show.
