Relish the magic of the season at SouthPark's own Winter Wonderland; Charlotte's favorite open-air ice-skating rink and ultimate Instagram photo op bucket-list destination! Winter Wonderland's ice skating rink features fun for the entire family including a daily afternoon snowfall, holiday lights and decor, as well as attractions such as Santa's Pub, live music and concerts, and visits from Santa and other characters. Join us for special events, guests and activities throughout the season, including our partnership with 103.7 WSOC to bring a Country Christmas to the rink.
