Christmas In Chattanooga!


Chattanooga is the place to be. It's fun and there's always something to do, especially around the holiday season! Here's some great events around the Chattanooga area that will help get you in the holiday spirit!


See the Chattanooga Zoo transformed into a magical wonderland! Visit the animals and watch them open their Christmas presents. Get your picture taken with Santa Claus and enjoy fun holiday games and crafts. Admission: $8.95 for adults, $5.95 (ages 3 - 12) and Under 3, Free. Annual Holiday Lights signify the holiday season at the Chattanooga Zoo. Members receive half off ticket prices. Tickets may be purchased in advance at the Zoo Gift Shop. 

November -  30
December - 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 & 22
 One of our most popular annual events, North Pole Limited train rides have been a family tradition since 1999. During the magical holiday season, trains take riders on an imaginary journey to the North Pole. Along the way, you’ll be treated to refreshments, storytelling, and occasional sing-a-longs. As the train gently rolls down the rails, a number of lighted displays can be seen outside.

The Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum operates special Holiday Dinner Trains for the Christmas season. The trips will include a four-course dining experience on board a restored 1924 dining car. The excursion trains will depart from Grand Junction Station at 6:00 pm in the evening, traveling at a leisurely pace through portions of urban East Chattanooga before reversing direction and returning to Grand Junction. The travel time is just right for the complete meal on a vintage dining car. 



Nov 16th- Jan 5th 6-9PM
For the holiday season, Rock City’s Enchanted Garden of Lights is a holiday tradition where Joy, Wonder and Magic await! Create a cool new tradition this year as the Enchanted Garden of Lights celebrates its 18th year featuring the North Pole Adventure. New features this year include more LED Lights as a part of our transition to all LEDs, a polar bear baby, and Dinner with Santa Event!
