Enchanted Garden Of Lights!


As a kid I remember driving around with my family to see all the Christmas lights. It seemed like every house on our street decorated for the holiday season. It brought all of us closer and we enjoyed the time together.



Rock City wants to carry that family close tradition with the Enchanted Garden of lights.  


Joy, wonder, and Magic await as you walk through the path to see the beautifully strung lights.  It's a wonderful time to bring the family together.  Enchanted Garden of Lights  features more than 30 holiday scenes. It's a  North Pole Adventure that you don't want to miss!!
My daughter in 2011 at the Enchanted garden of Lights

 See elves harvesting candy canes and building toys!
There is  nightly entertainment in the pavilion, next to a warm fireplace with a hot cup of cocoa (full entertainment schedule).

Children can experience Sugar Plum Fairy Makeovers. They can  enjoy face painting or dress up in costume and be magical fairies for a night. They can also enjoy Gingerbread cookie decorating and have the chance to visit with Santa and his elves to have their photo taken (through 12/3).

You can also enjoy a VIP Experience with Dinner with Santa!


"Rock City is proud to support the Ronald McDonald House during the Enchanted Garden of Lights event. A portion of ticket sales go to the Ronald McDonald House Charities. Rock City has given over $100,000 to Ronald McDonald House so far from proceeds from this holiday event!"- SeeRockCity

Purchase it!

You can purchase a ticket to enjoy this wonderful event as well! Pricing varies.  See the chart above.
Enchanted Garden if lights will take place through 1/5/2013.


Disclosure: I received complimentary tickets in return for this post. All opinions are honest and  remain my own.  Photos are courtesy of my family as well as the Rock City website.

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!

The zoo has always been a great place for a nice family outing. You have the opportunity to spend time together as well a learn about all kinds of animals. It's an experience that all kids should enjoy!

My daughter has always loved the zoo. Seeing the animals gets her excited. It's a wonderful feeling, knowing that something that is educational can also excite her and be fun at the same time.Who doesn't get exicted at the chance to see Jaguars, Spider Monkeys, Red Pandas, and even Snow Leopards? 
I'm even excited over that! :)


Now we get to combine that amazing experience with a popular holiday...Christmas!
Reindeer are usually the center of this holiday season, but now we get to spread the joy of the season with all the animals that call the Chattanooga zoo home!  It puts you in the holiday spirit as everything glows with holiday cheer!
