Christmas Magic at Knott’s Merry Farm
Turn your holiday photo into a winter wonderland at Knott’s Merry Farm. Capture your family among festive decorations, the towering Christmas tree and holiday lights, then stick around for the nightly snowfall or snap a classic photo with Santa. Bring some PEANUTS personality to your card with a photo with Snoopy, or step into the Pitchur Gallery and dress up as a cowboy, saloon girl or outlaw for an old-timey portrait. You can even capture the excitement mid-ride with FunPix photos on select attractions.

Breakfast With Santa
Start your holiday morning at Mrs. Knott’s Chicken Dinner Restaurant with Breakfast with Santa. Enjoy breakfast, meet Santa and capture a classic holiday photo with the kids before exploring more of Buena Park.

Picture-Perfect at The Source OC
The Source OC gets festive for the holidays with a Christmas tree and seasonal décor that create an easy backdrop for your holiday card. While you’re there, make it a full photo day at Photogram OC, where you can choose from traditional photobooths, XL photo strips, mini photos, a High-Angle Booth and full studio setups with plenty of props. Decorate your photos with fun stamps and stickers, or grab free mini photos printed on receipt-style paper. For a Korean-style photo strip, stop by Life4Cuts to pose with friends and family and choose from unique frames and borders.

Christmas With Knights & Pirates
Trade the traditional Christmas backdrop for something more unexpected. At Medieval Times, take a photo with the knights, King and Queen after the show. During Pirates Take Christmas, meet the pirates, holiday characters and Santa for a festive photo after the performance.
