12 Best Holiday Treats at Knott's

0 Shares

’Tis the season for the largest Christmas celebration ever at Knott’s Berry Farm! Each year, the park undergoes a whimsical holiday transformation to celebrate the wonder of the season. The winter wonderland shines with thousands of twinkling lights and a picture-perfect backdrop that radiates the spirit of Christmas. Knott’s Merry Farm’s timeless classics, including Merry Christmas, Snoopy!, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, and O. Henry’s A Gift of the Magi are perfectly complemented by more modern Peanuts-inspired holiday shows such as It’s the Merriest Christmas Show Ever, Charlie Brown and A Peanuts Guide to Christmas. Take a stroll through Calico and experience a magical snowfall…then warm up with hot chocolate at Santa’s Christmas Cabin. After all, it is the merriest time of the year! While at Santa’s Christmas Cabin, take a photo with Old St. Nick, then fuel up on one of Knott’s Merry Farm’s decadent holiday treats!

Do you love a good turkey dinner? These bite-sized egg rolls feature turkey and stuffing wrapped inside an egg roll, then deep fried to crispy perfection. Don’t forget to dip it in their famous cranberry aioli. Santa’s Christmas Cabin
