Stamford Town Center's Holiday Wish Interactive Holiday Experience
2022-11-11 - 2022-12-24 | Stamford Town Center, 100 Greyrock Place, Stamford, CT, 06901
Brings the kids down to Stamford Town Center and experience an Interactive holiday experience with Holiday Wish. ALL ages are welcome to attend our event and there is truly something to enjoy whether you are old or young.

Children under 2 years old are admitted free with paid adult/guardian.

A new Holiday Tradition designed to put families into the Spirit of the Season, Holiday Wish incorporates visual storytelling at its best. Along the journey though Holiday Wish, guests follow the magic through each feature. From the Elves’ Quarters, where they care for the reindeer, to an epic Twinkling Forest and Frozen in Time winter world.
Children will love the Holiday Wish filled interactive wonderland, featuring a digital snow snowball fight with a virtual snowman, and much more. Children will love the friendly challenge of being enlisted by the elves at Santa’s Workshop who need inspiration to overcome their creative blocks. Only one thing sparks their inspiration: children believing in the magic of the season.
The experience culminates in the grand finale at the North Pole where – if all goes as hoped! – the elves will be busy making toys in their workshop. Here, guests revel to their heart’s content in giant walk-in presents, a visit to Santa’s throne, and an animatronic snow bear band. Guests experience the magic of The North Pole, completing an inspired exploration that ensures holiday wishes come true. And restores the wonder of the season.
