Santa’s Workshop Experience returns to ICON Park with free carousel rides and holiday cheer!

Meet Santa, snap photos, and enjoy exclusive attraction discounts Nov. 8 – Dec. 24

Holiday cheer arrives early at ICON Park as Santa returns for another season of festive fun. Beginning Nov. 8 and running through Dec. 24, families are invited to experience The Santa Workshop Experience.

Each year, ICON Park turns into a sparkling holiday escape filled with twinkling lights, cheerful décor and plenty of Christmas magic. Children can share their wish lists with Santa, while families capture picture-perfect holiday portraits to treasure for years to come. 

New this year, families visiting The Santa Workshop Experience will receive a complimentary ride on the Carousel on the Promenade for all children under 13. For younger children under 42 inches tall, a parent or guardian may also ride for free, creating a memorable experience for the entire family.

Guests can also enjoy exclusive discounts to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum and SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium, giving families even more reasons to celebrate the season at ICON Park.

The Santa Workshop Experience has been a favorite holiday tradition in Central Florida since 2002. Its move to ICON Park in 2020 has helped the event expand with new offerings and photo opportunities.

Ringing in even more holiday spirit, ICON Park is bringing back its 50-foot Christmas tree to light up International Drive throughout the season. The I-Drive District Holiday Tree Lighting is 6 p.m. on Nov. 21 and will include live entertainment, music and remarks from local leaders to welcome the start of Christmas in Orlando.
