Colorado Polar Express Premium Experience

Highlights

Description

The Colorado Polar Express Premium Experience delivers a first-class holiday adventure for families and friends. The evening begins in the museum’s festive Polar Pavilion, where premium guests enjoy reserved front-row tables for the dazzling live cabaret show. Sip rich hot cocoa, nibble on freshly baked cookies, and sing along to the classic “Hot Chocolate” number as the beloved story unfolds around you. Then, step outside as the steam locomotive pulls into view—billowing clouds of smoke and light in the cold Colorado air. Board your private table inside the vintage parlor car for a journey straight to the North Pole. As you glide through the night, the story continues with laughter, music, and the jingling of bells, until the moment Santa himself boards the train to greet every table. Each guest receives a commemorative Silver Bell, a keepsake tumbler, and a festive ornament to remember the magic. This 2-hour experience combines theatre, storytelling, and the timeless joy of Christmas aboard a real steam train. Whether it’s your family’s first visit or a treasured annual tradition, this Premium Class journey promises the ultimate holiday experience in Golden, Colorado.
