After all that we’ve been through over the last two years, you deserve an enchanting Christmas, and what better way to experience the very best of the holidays than aboard Alberta’s Polar Express?

Inspired by the popular movie and set to the acclaimed soundtrack, the folks behind this magical ride have coordinated an evening taken right from the pages of the classic children’s story by Chris Van Allsburg.

During this round trip journey to the North Pole, families will be served hot chocolate and cookies made by the Polar Express Chefs and will be totally immersed in the whimsy of the holiday’s thanks to a cast of in-character staff; However, the experience doesn’t simply end once you leave your seats!

In hopes of encouraging guests to hold the feeling of Christmas near throughout the season, everyone will also receive a ceramic Polar Express mug and a ‘first gift of Christmas” silver sleigh bell that they get to take with them when they go.
