Winterland Express & Celebration of Lights
- When: Friday, December 25, 2020, 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
- Location: 700 West C St, Kannapolis, NC 28081
The Winterland Express train runs every evening from November 20th – December 30th (closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day) from 6-9 p.m., Sundays – Thursdays, and from 6 – 10 p.m., Fridays and Saturdays. Ride the train thru the park and count down the 12 Days of Christmas as you view unique holiday light displays.
This year you will need to make a reservation and pay in advance to ride the Winterland Express. Reserve a row on the train for $6. A row can typically hold three children or two adults with a maximum of three people per row. There will be nine rows available per train ride. If there are any unsold rows per train ride, those will be sold each night at the Village Park ticket office on a first come basis. The reservation process allows us to accommodate as many people as possible per train ride – as safely as possible. Social distancing and masks are required.
The train will run every 15 minutes. This allows staff time to appropriately sanitize the train between rides. To make a reservation click this link – www.kannapolisnc.gov/christmas.
Favorite activities such as making s’mores around the fire pit and listening to the Singing Bears perform return as usual. Again, this year, kids of all ages will be able to visit Santa in his studio each night. However, children will not be able to sit on Santa’s lap (we do not want him to be sick and unable to visit on Christmas Eve). You will be able to take a free photo with him.
The model train display and carousel will not be part of this year's event due to indoor gathering COVID restrictions.
COVID health guidelines will be followed at each activity location. Masks, social distancing and hand washing are required.
