Movie fans will have yet another reason to celebrate the upcoming holiday season at Gaylord Opryland.
The famed Nashville resort announced it will debut a one-of-a-kind marquee Christmas pop-up experience in November called, "I Love Christmas" via a Visit Music City press release on Wednesday.
The new experience is a multi-sensory exhibition in collaboration with Warner Bros. Consumer Products that will allow guests to experience some of their favorite holiday movies. The exhibition will feature key moments from iconic Warner Bros. Christmas movies including The Polar Express, A Christmas Story, Elf, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and The Year Without A Santa Claus.
Guests will have access to 13 scenes featuring replicas of film props, audio clips and more. Exhibits include traveling with Buddy the Elf from Santa's North Pole workshop to New York City, taking photos in front of the Griswold family's house decorated in thousands of Christmas lights and more.
"I Love Christmas Movies" will be part of Gaylord Opryland's 38th annual "A Country Christmas" lineup, which will run from November 13, 2020 and through January 3, 2021.
Visit Music City confirmed that a lineup of additional signature activities and experiences is currently being developed. Visitors can still expect family-friendly activities such as ice tubing, scavenger hunts, gingerbread decorating, live performances and more, featured in the resort's indoor atriums decorated with millions of holiday lights, Christmas trees and thousands of ornaments.
