Knott’s Berry Farm gears up for its annual holiday transformation

Knott's Berry Farm will once again transform into Knott's Merry Farm later this month, offering new experiences and returning fan favorites.

The holiday festivities begin on Nov. 22 and continue through Jan. 5, 2025.

This year's Christmas event will feature the new "'Tis the Season Tree Lighting Ceremony" in Calico Park. Guests are invited to join Snoopy, singers, and dancers to kick off the holiday season during the evening event.

Christmas in Calico will continue with "snowfall," the Calico Carolers singing holiday favorites throughout Ghost Town, and the return of the "Home for the Holidays" show at the Calico Mine Stage.

Elsewhere in Ghost Town, Krazy Kirk and the Hillbillies will put on a holiday show.

Guests can also catch the Snoopy in the "Snoopy's Night Before Christmas" ice show in the Walter Knott Theater.

Knott's take on classic holiday tales will also be featured at the Bird Cage Theatre, where attendees can watch "A Calico Christmas Carol" and "The Gift of the Magi, 1885."

Park visitors can meet Santa Claus in Santa's Christmas Cabin in the Wilderness Dance Hall or browse through holiday gifts at Knott's Christmas Crafts Village.

Seasonal treats and merchandise will also be available throughout the park.
