Hundreds of trees frosted with millions of lights, incredible holiday displays, a ride on one of our two "Forest Express" passenger trains, a spin on an antique carousel, a windswept trip down the Alpine Slide, a visit to Santa, and finished off with a heaping holiday dose of hot cocoa and funnel cakes, the Las Vegas holiday classic, The Magical Forest, opens its doors to holiday revelers Thanksgiving Day, November 22nd through December 30th. 


Every year The Magical Forest reinvents itself with something new just around the next turn on the Forest path, and this year is no exception.  The elves toil all year long to create this Winter Wonderland in the Desert, which in 2006 was attended by over 150,000 visitors from Las Vegas and all over the world.  Come join us and experience the warmth of the holidays at The Magical Forest.
