The Santa Workshop Experience is coming to ICON Park

ICON Park is kicking off its Holiday season with the return of The Santa Workshop Experience, starting November 5, 2021.

Families will be able to partake in the classic tradition of taking beautiful holiday photos and kids will be able to meet Santa Claus, which is always a treat for them. Parents can take photos and video with their own cellphone, too.

Every child who participates in The Santa Workshop Experience will receive a free ticket to ride The Wheel, ICON Park’s signature attraction. Guests accompanying the children will receive 50 percent off their tickets to The Wheel.

The Pearl Express train will also be a part of the festivities this year. The train, decked out in its holiday best, will pick up registered children for free directly from the parking garage. Parents simply need to show the conductor their reservation and the train will transport their family straight to the workshop.

COVID safety protocols in place include guest temperature taking and hand sanitizing before meeting Santa, and regular COVID testing for Santa and his elves. I’m told this year there will be no plexiglass barrier with Santa.

To make your reservation for The Santa Workshop Experience, visit TheSantaWorkshopExperience.com. Spots are available daily through December 24. Parking is free.

I did this last year, and it was fun. Here are some photos from the visit (where I got rained on outside LOL):
