The holidays are all about spending quality time together to make lasting, festive memories. Make a day of it exploring the wonders of the Cultural Trail, before getting up close with the dolphins, walruses, and sea lions at Christmas at the Zoo! The fun doesn’t stop there! You and your family can climb ALL ABOARD on the Snowfall Express train ride at the Indiana State Museum’s Celebration Crossing. Bring your family of any size — and any age — along for some Winter Wanderland fun!
Sip hot cocoa and stroll through twinkling lights as you visit scampering red pandas, playful penguins, whiskered walrus and the graceful arctic fox. And, of course, visit Santa’s Magic Cottage.
At the Indiana State Museum’s Celebration Crossing, you’ll discover an epic train ride on the Snowfall Express, a holiday buffet inside the L.S. Ayres Tea Room, a visit with Santa, and winter wonderland activities.
There’s no place like home (plate) for the holidays! The most wonderful event of the year is finally here. Our holiday programming includes a pancake breakfast, photo opportunity with Rowdie dressed as Santa Claus, face painting, crafts, and even a spirited evening of cheer with great bourbon.
Tackle all of your last minute wish lists with some festive holiday shopping in downtown retailers with some of the city’s most unique gift-giving ideas they’ll love!
You’ll find the perfect place to pop into for a refreshing beverage along your wanderland journey!
