The Lodge – National Landing
Metropolitan Park
About This Event
Skisons Greetings! Join the National Landing Business Improvement District at The Lodge, a
ski-themed winter festival to ring in the most wonderful time of year. Come to Met Park to
celebrate the season with festive Instagrammable moments, activities and bites. There will be
no shortage of holiday cheer and different activities each day for everyone throughout the
weekend, including:
- Bunny Hill: For some kid-friendly fun, visit Bunny Hill for glitter tattoos and face
painting, and find out if they’re on the naughty or nice list with Santa! Balloon artists,
train rides, crafts, letters to Santa, and more will be available for our littlest guests.
- Blue Run: Families and their pups can stop by Blue Run to treat their four-legged friend
at the dog bone bar or pose for a pet caricature. Guests can shop from local vendors
and artists at The Ski Shop Holiday Market, take a last-minute holiday card photo at
the ski pass booth, or find the perfect Christmas tree or wreath at the pop-up lot.
Local restaurants, a s’mores hut, and peppermint mocha competition featuring
National Landing’s most iconic coffee shops and more, are just a few of the seasonal
flavors available at The Lodge.
- Black Diamond: Adults can ring in the holiday season at the Ugly Sweater Aprés Ski
Happy Hour, Sleigh Ride Drag Show, try axe throwing, or stop by the bar for a spiked
hot chocolate or merry mulled wine.
