Make your list, check it twice, then buy ChristmasFest tickets for family fun on ice!

This Black Friday, skip the ordinary gifts and give an experience they’ll remember. Nola ChristmasFest tickets are the perfect holiday surprise for all ages!

Get ready to “Let the Yuletide Roll!” as the Convention Center transforms into an indoor winter wonderland with ice slides, festive displays, thrilling carnival rides, holiday-themed mini golf, and more.

The Big Freezy, New Orleans’ only ice-skating rink with real ice, returns this year alongside ice bumper cars – an exciting, limited-capacity, exclusive experience. This all-new attraction requires a separate ticket and reservation, and spots will go quickly. Restrictions apply, click here to learn more about ice bumper cars.

To upgrade your experience, don’t miss Skating with Santa on Sunday, December 21 from 9:30–11:00 a.m., featuring hot cocoa, coffee, breakfast delights, and early access to the rink. Tickets are $65 for adults and $45 for kids, and they sell out fast!
