EVENT DETAILS
Christmas Lights Up Colonial Williamsburg and Busch Gardens
You’re invited to attend not one but two cherished holiday traditions only available during Christmastime in Williamsburg, Virginia — Grand Illumination in Colonial Williamsburg and Busch Gardens® Christmas Town™! The Procession of the Yule, nighttime fireworks, Christmas Town Express, and Santa’s Workshop name some of the exciting seasonal experiences offered at these annual events.
Your historic holiday begins with check-in at Marriott’s Manor Club at Ford’s Colony. You’ll receive a three-day Bounce Ticket. This ticket allows three consecutive days of unlimited admission and parking to both Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. So venture over to Busch Gardens Christmas Town and see the theme park transformed for the season. Enjoy the classic thrill rides and attractions, as well as other festivities that are only available during this annual festival. Or set off to the Historic Area to learn about America’s past in an immersive and interactive way. Explore acres of living history with real tradespeople, stage productions, lush gardens, lighting of the cressets, American folk art, and more.
On Day 2, you’ll head to the Colonial capital for a delicious dinner with fellow Owners at Blue Talon Bistro, a charming restaurant in the heart of the Historic Area. Dine on what the chef calls serious comfort food — dishes from both the French Bistro tradition and more American roots designed to highlight the rich, fulfilling flavors of classic recipes. Then, marvel at Grand Illumination. This outdoor ceremony and fireworks display over the Capitol Building and Governor’s Palace commemorate the 18th century custom of illuminations, or the firing of guns and lighting of fireworks to honor major events such as the birthday of a reigning sovereign, military victories, or the arrival of a new colonial governor. Festive decorations, special musical performances, as well as the usual museums and reenactments in Colonial Williamsburg promise a lasting memory.
This extraordinary Christmas event will be one for the history books. Spaces are limited, so please book now to secure your spot.

WILLIAMSBURG
Immerse Yourself in History
It’s impossible to experience all of Williamsburg in a single visit. Popular attractions include Busch Gardens® and renowned museums. But the most appealing draw is Virginia’s historic triangle: the first settlement at Jamestown, the Yorktown Battlefield, and Colonial Williamsburg.
Colonial Williamsburg is the nation's largest living history museum. The entire town stays in character 24 hours a day — children at play, farm families, marching militia, and tavern folks — all encouraging you to have fun immersing yourself in the 18th-century lifestyle.
Williamsburg is not just for history buffs, nor is it all about the Revolution. In addition to shopkeepers and townsfolk, you'll discover governors' mansions, palace gardens, authentic taverns, and rare breed livestock. There's something for everyone. Come connect to the thrill of a bygone era, where you'll meet all kinds of people dressed in authentic attire and engaged in colonial life.
