California's Great America WinterFest

About this adventure

WinterFest turns California's Great America in Santa Clara into Northern California's most spectacular holiday theme park festival, illuminated with more than 3 million twinkling lights. Families can skate on the sparkling ice of Snow Flake Lake beneath the iconic Columbia Carousel, admire the dazzling 70-foot Christmas tree in Hometown Square, and meet beloved PEANUTS characters including Snoopy and Charlie Brown dressed in their holiday finest. Children can decorate giant sugar cookies in Mrs. Claus' Kitchen, mail letters to the North Pole, enjoy family-friendly rides, and watch live Broadway-style holiday musical shows performed across festive stages.
