Snoopy's Merriest Tree Lighting Santa and Snoopy (Large)Knott’s Berry Farm loves the Holidays, and so do we! Of course the wonderful tradition of Knott’s Merry Farm is returning to the Buena Park theme-park this year. Including the return of some popular Merry Farm activities and attractions. Let’s see how Joy is in Season at Knott’s Merry Farm 2015:


Knott’s Merry Farm begins on November 21st of 2015, and runs through January 3rd of 2016! That’s quite a while, and should be plenty of time for you to check it out! We personally love the event, it feels very holiday-esque, with the lights and characters around Ghost Town, as well as the atmosphere in the rest of the park, it’s a fun and warming event to visit. image007 (Large)

Let’s take a look at some of the Merry Farm activities of this year!

No visit to Knott’s Merry Farm is complete without catching a performance by the world famous beagle, Snoopy as he performs an ice spectacular, Merry Christmas, Snoopy! inside of the 2,100 Charles M. Schulz Theatre. In this exciting new show filled with whimsy and spectacular skating, Snoopy enjoys all of the best parts of the season, including trimming the Christmas tree, awaiting Santa’s arrival, and attending the festive Christmas Ball!

This really is a pretty great part of the event, we’re glad it’s returning bigger than before!Knott's Merry Farm Snow and Glow Couple (Large)

Back by popular demand, the Ghost Town and Calico Railroad celebrate Christmas on Engine 41. Climb aboard a vintage railcar and meet an ever-changing group of Ghost Town residents eager to share their Christmas plans and songs with you. This is the third year Knott’s Merry Farm will present guests with Christmas on Engine 41, and we’re insanely glad it’s returning. It’s fun, interactive, and something you won’t find at other themepark holiday events. Boy with Punch Card (Large)
