Nashville’s most extraordinary frozen holiday attraction, ICE!, returns with the holiday classic, Frosty the Snowman™, as part of Gaylord Opryland Resort’s 41st Annual A Country Christmas event, Nov. 8, 2024, through Jan. 4, 2025. Guests will embark on a magical journey alongside the famous snowman who came to life. The attraction includes 11 immersive walk-through scenes, larger-than life ice sculptures, awe-inspiring passageways, photo-worthy moments the entire family can enjoy, and 6 thrilling two-story ice slides – more than ever before! The ICE! experience concludes in a separate area dedicated to the Nativity scene, meticulously carved, and shaped into a dramatic display of crystal-clear ice.
While ICE! is the signature attraction of A Country Christmas, there are plenty more merry activities, events, and dazzling decorations, both indoors and outdoors. A true winter wonderland, the resort boasts more than five million twinkling lights, elaborately themed Christmas trees including a fully adorned 48-foot tree, 15,000 poinsettias, 15 miles of green garland, and 10 miles of hand-tied ribbon.
Additionally, guests can experience exciting rides at Pinetop, an outdoor Appalachian-esque village, where thrilling activities await including ice tubing down a 15-foot-high, four-lane ice tubing hill, a classic bumper car experience, Snowball Build & Blast where guests can throw real snowballs at interactive targets created by Santa’s Elves, ice skating or ice-skating lessons on a 10,000 square-foot rink, and the Merry & Bright Skating Spectacular live show featuring champion skaters, big jumps, fast spins and awe-inspiring throws and lifts.
This year’s “A Country Christmas Dinner Show” will begin November 23 and run through Christmas Day. It will feature two different shows including Terri Clark’s “It’s Christmas…Cheers!” (November 23-24, and 27-30 & December 1, 4-6, and 17-22) and The Frontmen’s “Holidays & Hits” (November 25-26 & December 2-3, 14-16, and 23-25). The unforgettable experience highlights classic and original holiday music plus favorite country hits, paired with a festive meal crafted by the resort's award-winning chefs. New this year is Join the jolliest hostess for a brand-new experience, Mrs. Claus’ North Pole Breakfast. This one-of-a-kind dining and photo opportunity with Mrs. Claus includes a delicious breakfast to enjoy with friends and family.
A frozen flurry has swept through the atrium, scattering vibrant clothing and accessories meant for decorating Christmas snowmen. Embark on a festive quest to find these scattered pieces and use them to design your very own snowman, bringing the Christmas spirit back to life during the new Snowman Scramble Scavenger Hunt.
