Opening November 21st, 2025
Step into the enchanted forest of Aurora, where every visitor becomes part of the story. As you journey through an illuminated forest, your presence and interactions help the Winter Wizards push back the gloom — a creeping chill that threatens to dim the spirit of the holidays.
Want to add a little extra magic? 🪄 Optional magic wands (available for $20 before you enter the trail) let you reveal hidden moments and awaken extra magic along the path. Each wave of your wand strengthens the Wizards’ power and brings new surprises to life!
Some of the photos shown are from previous years. Not all concepts will return for 2025.
