ATLANTA (November 14, 2019) - Santa’s Fantastical, a whimsical indoor wonderland which merges timeless traditions with innovative technology and immersive visuals, officially opens its doors to the city this week. Returning for its second season, Santa’s Fantastical is offering a fully reimagined journey to the North Pole and beyond for all who visit.
“Atlanta is our home but we searched the world for talent and inspiration to make this the best year yet,” says Santa’s Fantastical CEO Walt Geer. “Our guests come here to laugh and share good times, create memories, start new traditions, and connect with their families and friends. You won’t find this combination of art, technology and nostalgia anywhere else.”
