Everland is transforming its entire park into a winter wonderland ahead of Christmas, offering an integrated package of performances, parades, and nighttime fireworks shows.

The Samsung C&T-operated theme park announced Sunday that it will run the "X-mas Fantasy" festival with Christmas carols throughout the park, maintaining the holiday atmosphere through the end of the year.

The park's flagship content features performances and parades where visitors can meet Santa and Rudolph up close. The "Bling Bling X-mas Parade" showcases dozens of performers including Santa, Rudolph, and elves marching alongside parade floats decorated as Christmas trees, cakes, and gift boxes.

At the Grand Stage, the dance performance "Very Merry Santa Village" featuring Lenny & Friends and Santa Village characters runs twice daily.

Four Seasons Garden has been transformed into "Emerald City" with a Wizard of Oz theme for the winter festival period. The area combines character sculptures of Dorothy, Scarecrow, and Tin Man with snowmen and tree decorations, creating photo opportunities for visitors. The company said it has also arranged photo sessions with characters dressed in special Christmas costumes.

After sunset, nighttime programs take over. Everland plans to enhance the Christmas atmosphere with lighting displays and the "K-pop Demon Hunters Sing-Along Fireworks Show."

The park has also prepared participatory events for visitors. A costume event running through year-end offers price discounts and benefits including dedicated sledding lanes and priority boarding at Safari World for visitors dressed as Santa or Rudolph. However, eligible benefits and methods may vary by location and period, so visitors should check official announcements before their visit.

Everland added that it is also operating a combined pass, shuttle service, and two-park events that allow visitors to travel between Everland and Caribbean Bay in a single day.
