Now Snowing in Orlando

Every holiday season, with a pinch of pixie dust and a dash of magic, Celebration, Florida, is transformed into a winter wonderland. 

This charming Orlando town was designed in the mid-1990's by Walt Disney World as a tribute to small-town American living, and its picturesque community is the perfect setting for nostalgic holiday festivities.  

To experience winter magic when you visit Orlando this holiday season, enjoy an evening at Celebration’s Now Snowing event. 

You’ll delight in wonderful wintery activities and snow flurries every night with the added bonus of mild Florida-in-December weather.  

 Here’s a peek at some of the winter fun you’ll enjoy in Celebration this year. 

Outdoor Ice Skating

Legs in black pants and white ice skates on the ice. Try ice skating at Now Snowing in Celebration.

Perfect for kids and families, the Now Snowing outdoor skating rink is a fun way to experience a classic winter pastime.  

Skates are available for rent, and multi-day skate passes are available for purchase if you plan on visiting more than once. 

The rink is in the center of town, so you can admire holiday lights and decorated storefronts as you glide across the ice.

Horse-Drawn Carriage

For some old-fashioned fun, enjoy a horse- drawn carriage ride through the streets of Celebration.  

Choose from classic carriages or ones that look just like Cinderella’s carriage. 

During your ride you’ll enjoy beautiful views of the town center decorations, festive homes, and Lake Rianhard.

Meet Santa Claus

Share your Christmas wish lists and snap a photo with Santa before he returns to the North Pole in anticipation of Christmas Eve. He’ll be welcoming guests to his Christmas cottage throughout the holiday season, and you’re invited for a visit. 

Are you a parent to furry, four-legged kids? Join the fun! Bring your pets on pet night for adorable photos that will light up your holiday cards this year.  

Check for more information on specific times, dates, and pricing. 

Holiday Shopping

A variety of paper shopping bags, tissue paper, and gift tags.

Throughout the Celebration town center, you’ll find adorable shops, cafes, and other eateries.  

Indulge in holiday fudge at Kilwin’s then visit the Market Street Gallery, where you’ll find holiday ornaments, garlands, and other decorations to bring the spirit of the season to your home. 

Now Snowing is the perfect opportunity for holiday shopping and crossing a few names off your list. 

Snow

As the name of the event suggests, every night you’ll enjoy a magical snowfall in Celebration’s town center. The temperatures may not be as brisk, but the holiday spirit and excitement in seeing snowflake flurries drifting to the ground is just as special in Orlando as it is anywhere else.   

Check Celebration’s website for snow fall times, then enjoy the magic of snow in Florida.  

Take some snow selfies to share on social media or jump into the action as you let the snowflakes swirl around you. Take your snowfall experience to the next level by enjoying ice cream or a cozy hot drink as you stroll through this magical winter wonderland.
