A Magical Ride to the North Pole
Have you ever wanted to provide the most amazing magical ride to the North Pole experience for your children? Well, without having to drive to the North Pole that is (haha). Right around the corner and located in the heart of Irvine Regional Park, the Irvine Park Railroad will be celebrating their 23rd annual Christmas Train event and we’re offering one extremely lucky Funny Mom Blog reader a family pack of tickets to attend!
The Magical Experience
Get ready for the day of your life! The Christmas train will depart from the brightly-lit train station and drop passengers off at the North Pole. While at the North Pole, children can share their wish list with Santa and have their photo taken with him too. You can even take pictures with your personal camera or you may purchase a photo taken by Irvine Park Railroad. We always pick up one of the pictures taken by the Irvine Park Railroad because it’s a neat keepsake.
After visiting with Santa, hop back aboard the train and enjoy the colorful Christmas lights and decorations, as well as the magical “Tunnel of Lights”, on the ride back to Santa’s Village.
There is so much to do at Santa’s Village. Families can decorate cookies, go “ice fishing”, hear a story from Mrs. Claus, play carnival games and win prizes and so much more! It’s really a fun and wholesome experience that will create lifelong memories. Santa’s Village is free to enter and is located at the train station. Some activities cost money.

Christmas Train Tickets
The Irvine Park Railroad Christmas Train is my children’s most favorite winter event of the year. They love visiting with Santa Claus, because he really is the nicest guy. We can’t wait to go back this year. I just hope the Southern California weather cooperates so it’ll really feel like winter on the evening of our visit.
Christmas Train tickets must be purchased in advance.
Head over to Irvine Park Railroad to Purchase Christmas Train Tickets (open November 1st).

My favorite part of the Christmas train is the lights! I love seeing the park transformed. It’s magical!
I think my favorite activity will be the train. My daughter loves trains so much and they look so magical when there’s lights all over.
My family has never been on the Christmas Train. So I hope we win! ?
My favorite part is seeing my kids having so much fun. I also love the cute pictures that I get.
We have never been at Christmas, but would love to go.
I think our favorite will be riding the train(seeing all the Christmas lights) to meet Santa!
Would love to win, thank you.
This is my family’s favorite Christmas tradition! This will be our 4th year in a row and can’t wait! The train ride with the lights and then Santa is the absolute best!
We have both our boys (1yr and 3yrs) unwrap one Christmas book a night starting Dec 1st and read it at bedtime as a family
We’d love to have the opportunity to take the train ride to meet and speak to Santa!
I always want to go but can never make it to the Christmas train. My little family would love it. We love everything about Christmas and my boys love trains and Santa. We would be so happy if we won so we can finally go.
Our favorite is riding the train through the tunnel and and all the bright lights around the park !
We have never been but I imagine the train ride to go see Santa and Mrs. Claus is magical!!!
We love riding the Christmas train with all the beautifully adorned lights to visit Santa!
My favorite Christmas Train activity is seeing that great smile on the Mr’s face in the first pic!
We have never had the opportunity to ride the Christmas train. It would be awesome to win these tickets and make new memories!
My little girl loves the cookie decorating.
We wanna see Santa! 🙂
I think it’ll be fun to do the paddleboat.
We’ve only done it once. It was sooo cold, and we rode one of the last trains of the eve and the concessions were closed down. We didn’t get to experience much, but the tunnel of lights was pretty fantastic.
I’ve never been to this event but would love the chance to take my big family!
An activity that seems great is the choochoo Christmas train for my kid!
We’ve never been there for Christmas train so I’m not sure what our fave would be…. But I’m being it’ll be the train ride!
We haven’t been able to do the Christmas train yet, but oh do we love it on every other day! Here’s hoping we can ride the Christmas train this year!
Watching the kids smile on the train ride and taking pics with Santa!
Last year, we were so sick, and couldn’t go. I really want to take the family this year.
The train ride!
