Holiday Ice & Lights Festival

About this event

Kick off your holiday adventures at Holiday Ice & Lights Festival at Lake Metroparks Farmpark! Santa and Mrs. Claus will be on hand to celebrate the season with visitors during this special holiday event.

Be sure to bundle up and head outside to sit on Santa’s special North Pole throne made of ice. While outside check out some of northeast Ohio’s best ice carvers as they create your favorite holiday characters. There will also be plenty of icy photo opportunities.

Each evening as the sun sets, step onto a tractor-drawn wagon and enjoy a ride through Farmpark’s classic light displays.

Make sure to visit the Well Bred Shed and the arena. Farmpark staff and volunteers developed a special holiday-themed equine show (with Santa’s approval) to celebrate the holiday season.

Santa and his elves from the Northern Ohio Garden Railroad Society will set up his tremendous North Pole Train Display in the Exhibit Hall. Don’t miss a visit to the North Pole Cookie Shop that will feature Mrs. Claus’ famous (and Santa’s favorite) sugar cookies and frosting for you to decorate and take home (small additional fee).

Once you make your way around the park and experience all the holiday magic, be sure to stop in the theater to visit Santa himself in his sleigh.

Daily admission fees apply.
