To Prepare for Your Visit (with new additional COVID restrictions) ….

  • TICKETS ARE ONLY AVAILABLE ONLINE and are sold with specific entrance times. To not exceed COVID limitations, it is important that patrons arrive at their tickets’ entrance times.
  • As a result of additional COVID restrictions, the number of guests per time period has been reduced.
  • When early time slots are sold out, patrons purchasing later timed ticket will not be permitted to enter the Winter Walk earlier/later than their tickets’ times.
  • Please remain in your vehicle until your ticket time.
  • Please practice social distancing when waiting in line and in the Winter Walk.
  • Masks are required in all areas. Masks may be removed temporarily when eating or drinking.
  • Guests will not be allowed to congregate outside the entrance, inside the Visitor Center, or throughout Winter Walk. We encourage you that if you are meeting others that you coordinate a meeting point in the grass areas near the parking lot and do not join the line to enter until all guests in your party arrive. Ideal group sizes are up to 8 persons so that others may safely pass your group on the pathways.
  • In order to speed entry, please have your tickets pulled up on your device with your brightness maximized. If you have paper tickets, please pass out your tickets and have all scannable areas available for the ticket attendant.
  • Staff will be regularly disinfecting common touch points, concessions areas, and restrooms.
  • Light up retail and our annual Winter Walk of Lights ornament will be available for purchase.
  • Concessions will be available for sale nightly.
  • To protect the health and safety of our employees and guests, we are following Social Distancing Standards recommended by the Center for Disease Control. These standards will be strictly enforced without exception.
  • In addition to social distancing, we are increasing sanitation practices to keep our guests and employees safe. We are cleaning, counters, credit card keypads, door handles, restrooms, interactive displays and other high-touch surfaces.
  • Buildings and restrooms will be open, but access will be restricted based on required capacity limits. Portable toilets are also available in the parking lot and the halfway point of the walk.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as our employees diligently work to provide a safe environment for everyone.
