Let’s Talk Lake Nona: Holiday Event Preview

November 2, 2022 by Lake Nona

Fall in Lake Nona has been full of seasonal delights as we’ve hoisted our steins full of Park Brewing’s signature Oktoberfest beer, picked out pumpkins while exploring Town Harvest, and enjoyed tricks, treats and beats at the Spooknona Graveyard Smash. 

Now, we’re getting ready to wrap up the fall season with our third annual Lake Nona Veterans Day celebration, Home of the Brave, on Friday, Nov. 11, in Lake Nona Town Center to honor local service men and women. Watch in amazement as the Patriotic Parachute Team, illuminated by red and blue flares, descend from the sky followed by the Honors Ceremony featuring special guests and local elected officials. We’ll end this special night of honor, remembrance and gratitude with performances to salute each branch of the armed forces.

The celebration doesn’t stop when fall ends. Beginning Dec. 7, we’re looking forward to a magical winter season with the return of Central Florida’s favorite holiday festival, Oh, What Fun!

Gather in Lake Nona Town Center, or as it’s known for the holidays, Peppermint Square, for a month filled with celebrations. This year, enjoy more snow, more shows, more photo spots, and more magical encounters than ever before! Immerse yourself in all things merry and bright in Peppermint Square brimming with holiday decorations, nightly snowfalls and live entertainment.

As you stroll through Peppermint Square, snack on something sweet from a collection of holiday themed pop-up food stands. Get a chance to meet Santa and Mrs. Claus in their whimsical winter cottage. Make holiday memories to last a lifetime with your loved ones along the Oh, What Fun! Photo Wall or in front of Peppermint Square’s centerpiece 24-foot-tall Christmas tree. Looking for your own tree to take home? Find the perfect holiday tree for your family at the Peppermint Forest Christmas tree lot located near Lake Nona Town Center.

Enjoy live shows throughout the festival, including showcases from local schools, professional carolers, an all-new cirque performance, live bands and the return of dance parties with everyone’s favorite MC, Peppermint the Penguin. This year, we’re adding a holiday market featuring local vendors and artisans. It’s the perfect place to find one-of-a-kind gifts for everyone on your nice list.

The seasonal magic continues throughout Town Center, extending to the Lake Nona Wave Hotel, where guests can enjoy seasonal food and drink options accompanied by holiday décor throughout the grounds.
