If you\u2019re looking for something a little strange, a little festive, and a whole lotta fun this holiday season, Ripley\u2019s has you covered. Ripley\u2019s Believe It or Not! Christmas Park in Hialeah promises to surprise you at every turn. Don\u2019t believe us? Well, hopefully you\u2019ll believe Steph Michaels. She went to check out the brand new Christmas experience.<\/p>\n
Believe it or not, there\u2019s an unbelievable Christmas experience lighting up Amelia Earhart Park in Hialeah.<\/p>\n
Maritza Gutierrez: \u201cIt\u2019s Ripley\u2019s Believe It or Not! Christmas Park and you\u2019re gonna find an immersive Christmas trail, a Ripley\u2019s museum, the oddities, like the smallest woman on earth, live jaw-dropping shows that are extraordinary and scary at the same time, with fire tricks, and then a lot of rides, and everything is included in one price.\u201d<\/p>\n
One price? What a bargain.<\/p>\n
Steph: \u201cWhat makes it so unique compared to other attractions and parks?\u201d<\/p>\n
Maritza Gutierrez: \u201cIt\u2019s the Ripley brand; It\u2019s beautiful, it\u2019s extraordinary, odd, and strange.\u201d<\/p>\n
Well, I like it strange. Let\u2019s go check out something weird.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m also in love with the food and the rides.<\/p>\n
Up next? Hey, Santa.<\/p>\n
Santa: \u201cSteph, what is it that you would like for Christmas?\u201d<\/p>\n
Steph: \u201cI can\u2019t believe he knows my name. OK, Santa, I would like a husband, some clothes, a new car, and a year pass here. Is that possible?\u201d<\/p>\n
Santa: \u201cVery possible, very possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
Thanks, you\u2019re the man.<\/p>\n
Now tickets start at $39. A season pass will cost you $69, and get this:<\/p>\n
Maritza Gutierrez: \u201cWhen you buy an online ticket, it\u2019s the same price that you buy here, locally. We don\u2019t change it, and we don\u2019t put a timeframe; everything is the same.\u201d<\/p>\n
Steph: \u201cI\u2019ve had the time of my life tonight. Ripley\u2019s Believe It or Not! Christmas Park is where it\u2019s at. If you haven\u2019t been here, make sure you come down, bring the whole family, get on some rides, get some churros, look, it\u2019s snowing. This is the best time that I\u2019ve had. Make sure you come down here. I\u2019m tired now, I\u2019ve been riding rides all night, I\u2019m going back to the station, see you guys later.\u201d<\/p>\n
