Holidays in Space, presented by PEPSI®, returns brighter than ever to Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. From December 20 – 30*, the visitor complex will be transformed into a spectacular, holiday-themed space wonderland, with vibrant decorations and the return of Starflake’s Holiday Voyage inspired by the adventure of space travel. Guests will find larger-than-life holiday installations, breathtaking photo opportunities, and an expanded Rocket Tree Trail, sponsored by L3Harris Technologies. Combining the magic of the holiday season with the spirit of discovery, Holidays in Space promises unforgettable experiences that immerse visitors of all ages in the wonder of space exploration.
Highlights of Holidays in Space include:
- Expanded Rocket Tree Trail: Each evening, visitors can marvel at the lights along the Rocket Tree Trail where themed Christmas trees line a path through the visitor complex, creating a stunning display.
- Iconic 50-foot tree: Illuminating the Rocket Garden and Gateway, the tree features more than 61,000 pixels of light.
- Starflake’s Holiday Voyage: A nightly projection show on the massive exterior of Gateway: The Deep Space Launch Complex®. Guests will embark on a breathtaking journey with Starflake as she travels through the stars, Earth, and beyond, visiting familiar places – like the Vehicle Assembly Building, the International Space Station and the James Webb Telescope – along the way.
- Festive Photo Opportunities: Whether one of the 6-foot-tall astronaut nutcrackers or the NASA meatball-turned-holiday-ornament, the photo opportunities are sure to brighten up any social feed or become family keepsakes for years to come.
