Christmas at the Galt House HotelIt’s the place to find the magic and excitement of the holiday season.  Christmas at the Galt House Hotel is upping the ante for family holiday activities.  The event runs November 16 – January 1 in Louisville, Kentucky.  It has many new features including Sing ‘n’ Joy International Choral Festival and Competition.  The choral event takes place over Thanksgiving Weekend and will bring choirs from across the globe to participate and share their unique cultural traditions. 

Christmas at the Galt House Hotel also includes a new character—Ernie the Engineer.  Ernie runs the Peppermint Express Kiddie Train Ride through the Candy Cane Forest.  He’ll also host Ernie’s Express Lunch where he’ll meet and interact with all the junior engineers.  Add to that a new Green Screen Experience and that guests get a Free Child’s Ticket with the purchase of an Adult KaLightoscope Christmas ticket, and you’ve got an exciting new holiday tradition for many families.  From the larger-than-life KaLightoscope luminaries, to the Christmas Village with the Snow Fairy and her Castle, and restored figures from old department store holiday windows; to the Candy Cane Forest with 100 animated characters, a talking tree and the Peppermint Express kiddie train ride; and the Colors of the Season Holiday Dinner Show, the holiday spirit is in full force.  Even the Toy Soldier Bellmen cannot contain themselves!  They dance the Countdown to Christmas every night at 5 p.m. in the lobby to the amusement of guests November 28th through December 24th.
