Gaylord Texan Resort announced that “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” will be the theme for its 2024 Christmas season frozen attraction, Ice!

“The magical walk-through display features more than 10 immersive scenes, six thrilling two-story tall ice slides, awe-inspiring passageways, and photo-worthy moments the entire family can enjoy,” a company news release stated.

The holiday attraction takes about 40 days to create and is carved by a team of 40 expert artisans from Harbin, China, home of the Harbin Ice Festival.

The attraction is kept at a chilly 9 degrees Fahrenheit to preserve the intricate, frozen detail. To help stay warm, guests will don the attraction’s signature complimentary blue parkas.

The resort property will display over 2 million twinkling holiday lights, 15,000 sparkling ornaments, and a 54-foot-tall rotating Christmas tree.
