Experience a magical Christmas season at Everland Resort this winter with a Christmas Fantasy performance and Moomin Wintertopia. Enjoy festive parades, Moomin-themed attractions, and enchanting performances that are perfect for the whole family to celebrate the festive season!
The best way to celebrate the Christmas season in Korea with family is by visiting Everland Resort. The theme park has been given a winter wonderland makeover for the festive season with a touch of a Nordic fairy tale aesthetic. Everland Resort, operated by Samsung C&T Resort Group, is just one hour from Seoul in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province.
This winter, visitors can get into the holiday spirit by seeing Santa, Rudolph, and their magical village friends at Everland with a full holiday lineup of parades, dances, photo ops, and a Moomin Wintertopia in collaboration with the beloved Finnish Moomintroll characters!
Enjoy a Spectacular Christmas Fantasy Performance
A magical Christmas Fantasy performance has begun at Everland Resort to celebrate the festive season. The performance includes the “Bling-bling X-mas Parade,” a 30-minute parade full of white snow, soap bubbles, and Christmas carols along Everland’s Parade Route. The Christmas Fantasy special will run from now until December 31. Show times and locations are available on Everland’s website or the Everland App!
Watch Santa Claus, Rudolph, and dozens of fairy tale-like characters march along the Parade Route from the entrance of the Rose Garden to Carnival Square, giving visitors magical Christmas memories. The giant parade cars are decorated with sleighs, Christmas trees, cakes, and more! Be sure to put your dancing shoes on because the parade’s finale at Carnival Square invites Everland visitors to come out and dance with the performers!
The Very Merry Santa Village
The ‘Very Merry Santa Village’ performance, which tells the story of Santa’s village friends’ chaotic Christmas adventures, will be held twice daily at Carnival Square.
During Very Merry Santa’s Village, Santa Claus, Rudolph, and the elves will be joined by Everland characters to sing carols and perform dance routines. After the show, visitors will have the opportunity to take photos with the performers.
Visit the Moomintrolls at Everland!
This winter, Everland will be transformed into a fairy tale winter wonderland with a Nordic twist at the Wintertopia Winter Festival featuring the Moomin characters! Wintertopia will feature immersive experiences with the Moomins, themed gardens, giant sculptures, attractions, themed food and beverages, and merchandise. Moomin Wintertopia will run until March 3, 2025.
In addition, the Four Seasons Garden will be decorated as a Nordic Forest that replicates Moominvalley, the home of the Moomintrolls! Enjoy the calm and serene atmosphere of a Nordic winter forest with birch trees, evergreen trees, and white snow along with cute and cuddly photo spots with Moominpappa, Moominmamma, and Snorkmaiden.
A Warm Moomin and Panda Greeting
Upon entering the park’s main entrance at Everland, guests will be greeted by the giant, almost 9-meter-tall Moomin Art Sculpture. Right next to Moomin, Everland’s biggest stars, twin pandas Rui Bao and Hui Bao, will also have sculptures, standing at about 5 meters tall. This is sure to be a popular spot for taking photos with cuddly friends this winter!
