It’s almost here! My absolutely favorite time of the year! Christmas at Gaylord Palms! Christmas at Gaylord Palms has become this Tampa Mama’s most fun tradition with the whole family and we wouldn’t miss it! I want to tell you how you can book and save some cash (because we all know that Santa’s sleigh doesn’t fill itself…am I right!?!)
This post has been updated to include all 2025 information!
You can read a few of my past years’ reviews here, but I want to give you all the ways you can save now by booking early! And there are actually many ways to save on ICE! at Gaylord Palms 2025 featuring “Ruldoph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” (November 14, 2025–January 7, 2026) along with hotel packages too! Ready, set…click on the links below (and make sure to tell them Tampa Mama sent you!)
1. There are amazing deals for so many people! AAA members, teachers, seniors, military, first responders and of course, Mariott Bonvoy members! Click here to save if you qualify for many ways to save!!
2. Who doesn’t want to stay at the Gaylord Palms Resort in Kissimmee, Florida! Purchase a Hotel Package and save when you book soon! Staying the night and experiencing the entire hotel during Christmas time is just magical! There is so much to do and see without ever having to leave! We would DEFINITELY recommend staying the night, and an atrium view is just spectacular! You might even be able to see the shows from your balcony! Package deals are available when combining ICE! tickets and your room stay! PS- It IS Florida, so don’t forget the swimsuits too!
3. By a Play & Save Bundle Package can save you up to 30%! There are so many experiences all wrapped up into a day of fun! “POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance” is an immersive new holiday show that is based on the book series and TV special! The light show above the Gaylord Palms’ atrium is not to miss! Check out all the options to save here!
4. If you can’t stay the night, stay for the day! Like the whole day! You can purchase reserved seating for “POMP, SNOW & CIRQUEumstance” along with ICE! featuring Ruldoph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, the Snow Factory too. Walk the atrium and do the Reindeer Games Scavenger Hunt all throughout the hotel and soak up all the Christmas. Have lunch at Wreckers and then book your dinner for later at the newly renovated Old Hickory Steakhouse. Stop by the Gingerbread Decorating Corner in the afternoon too! It’s a full day of fun all at Gaylord Palms!
5.The More the Merrier! Have a group of 10 or more!?! If you aren’t a scout group, there is still a way to save! Groups with 10 or more adults qualify for group pricing. Please contact ICE! Group Sales for pricing information at 407-586-0373 or groupticketsales@gaylordhotels.com Call to request details on how you can save!
6. Christmas at Gaylord Palms is all about the spirit of the season so drop by the hotel and have dinner at one of their most fabulous restaurants! We LOVE Old Hickory Steakhouse and eat there every time we visit! The renovation has just been complete and they are now open for business again!
We just can’t tell you how much we love our family tradition of Christmas at Gaylord Palms! We hope you are able to attend this year and save a few dollars! Will you be booking?
