LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN, Ga. – Warm your hearts this winter at Rock City Gardens’
Enchanted Garden of Lights! Chattanooga’s brightest holiday light experience takes place every
evening beginning at 4:30 p.m. from November 17 through January 6 (excluding Christmas
Eve). This wonderland of a million lights illuminates six distinct holiday realms and features
festive fun for everyone.
The journey begins through one of the world’s tallest walk-through lighted Christmas trees.
From there, take the North Pole Highway to each of Rock City’s magical realms, including the
colorful Arctic Kingdom, Heart of the Mountain and more! Move along with the dancing trees of
the Magic Forest and afterwards bundle up in the new Arctic Kingdom igloos. From Yuletown,
gaze upon Rock City’s fabulous view of the Chattanooga Valley. Bring Santa a wish list at the
North Pole Village! Get a picture with jolly ole St. Nick and decorate a delicious cookie with Mrs.
Claus. Stand at attention for the Toy Solider! Everyone’s favorite mime, Jerry, is on guard in full
uniform.
Warm up with hot chocolate and delectable holiday-themed treats like chocolate chip cookies
and powdered sugar donuts, as well as giant roasted turkey legs, burgers and hot dogs at select
food locations throughout the park. As always, the Fudge Kitchen is busy making its guest-
favorite holiday flavors! Head over to the Christmas Market for sweets, gifts, winterwear and
spirited drinks. Rock City-themed Christmas ornaments and other festive collectables, including
holiday gnomes and light-up merchandise like cotton candy sticks are available for purchase at
various retail locations.
Rock City loves its Gem members! Skip the entrance line and enjoy complementary hot
chocolate with a Gem Membership. Gem Members do not need reservations and are welcome to

Rock City is proud to support the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater

Rock City is one of the South’s most popular natural attractions. Known for its unique geological
and botanical wonders, the enchanted, 4,100-foot walking trail is a true marvel of nature
