Step back in time in Celebration as it transforms into a winter wonderland. Activities include ice skating, horse-drawn carriage rides, train adventures and meeting Santa. The Now Snowing in Celebration is great for families and kids of all ages.
But perhaps the best part of the festival is the snowfall, a nightly spectacle culminating on Christmas Day. Nightly snowfall occurs daily at 6 p.m., 7 p.m., 8 p.m. and 9 p.m.

Families can choose from several carriage and wagon rides, from a Cinderella carriage for up to four guests for $75 to a Christmas sleigh for up to four guests for $75.
