Santa's Workshop was just one element of Dollywood’s "Smoky Mountain Christmas" celebration. Only the North Pole is more hectic than the Dollywood location of Santa’s Workshop! Families stepped into a 7,000 square foot whimsical world as they entered Peppermint Valley. It took more than four weeks of work, 25 pounds of glitter, 100 gallons of paint, strings of candy garland, thousands of lights and ornaments to create the breathtaking Workshop.
Santa was especially busy posing for photographs and accepting Christmas wish lists. Families could play with a safe snow substitute, decorate Christmas cookies and make crafts. VeggieTales films were shown in the Christmas Movie Room.
