In addition to ICE!, the Gaylord Palms is home to many, festive Christmas offerings. The resort is decorated in the most merry manner as the atrium is transformed into a lighted, winter wonderland. You can enjoy the massive and majestic, 54-foot tall Christmas tree lighting, live stage shows and the Polar Bear Pursuit Scavenger Hunt. I viewed the Christmas show Luminescence, featuring The Edge Effect, with it’s traditional Christmas songs, aerial artist and aerial drum player! Watching someone play drums while suspended in the air is such a unique show detail. You can also decorate cookies with Gingy! I have a picture with him here.
You will also be absolutely dazzled by the large selection of gorgeous Christmas ornaments and decorations available for purchase at the Gaylord Palms!
