The Coffee Butler Amphitheater at the Truman Waterfront will be transformed into a land of holiday magic, fun and excitement with the return of the Waterfront Winter Wonderland extravaganza, hosted in partnership by Rams Head Presents and We’ve Got the Keys.
The warm weather winter festivities will take place Dec. 13-23 and Dec. 26-28 from 4 to 10 p.m.
Adults and children can enjoy sparkling holiday lights, traditional and contemporary music, and enchanting activities, such as skating on an “ice”-skating rink, journeying into charmed realms on a children’s Christmas train, riding a life-sized steed on a carousel, sliding down a giant slide, twirling on carousel swings, and reaching new heights on a Ferris wheel so large that “riders will actually be able to view the twinkling lighted boats passing by in the harbor from the top,” said Nadene Grossman Orr, president/CEO of We’ve Got the Keys.
Other activities include one-on-one visits with Santa Claus, special live music events, a craft tent for kids, larger-than-life inflatable snow globes, daily “snow” flurries, food and artisan vendors and holiday markets.
“We are delighted to co-present the Waterfront Winter Wonderland event in partnership with We’ve Got the Keys for the second year in a row,” said Kyle Muehlhauser, owner of Rams Head Group. “There are few places as magical as Key West during the holidays, and the amphitheater grounds provide a wonderful space where children can explore a world that’s been designed especially for them.”
General admission is $10 and is free for children age 5 and under. Individual ride tickets or unlimited ride wristbands can be purchased on-site.
Waterfront Winter Wonderland also is presented in part by the Monroe County Tourist Development Council. More information is at waterfrontwinterwonderland.com. To book private holiday parties for groups of 20 or more, contact liz@wevegotthekeys.com.
