Highlights of Four New Attractions Coming to Santa’s in 2017!

We know our visitors love the traditions at Santa’s – great holiday displays, visits with Santa, millions of spectacular lights, a breathtaking 90ft musical Christmas tree and hundreds of rides, shows and attractions. Fortunately, we’ve learned how keep those traditions going strong while also adding new thrills and memory-making opportunities to entertain our guests every season!

Our 35th year in operation is no exception.  The holiday mainstays and carnival favorites are still onsite, but we’ve got some great NEW attractions you’ll definitely want to experience! Here’s a peak at just four that we’re looking forward to sharing with you this season!

SkyHighFerrisWheel

Introducing Santa’s Sky High Wheel! We’re bringing North America’s largest traveling Ferris Wheel with over one million LED lights and spectacular views to South Florida! Soar over 150 feet in the air for the best aerial views of Santa’s spectacle of lights, along with the chance to gaze at Miami’s skyline. From the top, you can see up to 15 miles away! It’s the coolest thing to do with your family this season!

Back after three years – the Megadrop! Shoot up into the sky on this 130-foot tower of power and then feel the stomach-lurching thrill of plummeting back to earth in less than two seconds. Not for the faint of heart, Santa’s is so excited to bring this crowd-pleaser back to the park!

Megadrop

Santa’s Snowstorm. Bring the kids to this new interactive holiday-themed game show and watch them compete in creative and challenging tasks. Every participant is a winner! Great Entertainment for the entire family.

SantasSnowstormCollage

New kiddie rides! We didn’t forget the little ones. Our collection of kiddie rides has expanded by 20 percent, so technically this isn’t just one thing … but with additions like the Flying Bees and Wiggle Worm, we’re sure you’ll forgive our math! Bring your kids to Santa’s Enchanted Forest and have a blast together!

WiggleWorm

And there’s much much more! Check out all the new rides and experiences when Santa’s Enchanted Forest opens November 2! You won’t want to miss out on all the excitement and celebration planned for this special 35th anniversary season!
