Christmas Underground lights up Ruby Falls

Take a magical journey to the North Pole to visit Santa via Ruby Falls’ Christmas Underground beginning Friday, Dec. 1.

This holiday adventure offers an interactive experience to travel through Santa’s underground mining town, Joystone City, where beautiful Christmas lights twinkle throughout the day.

Guests will travel a secret passage through the caverns of Ruby Falls to the North Pole, where Santa’s miners are collecting Joystones to spread Christmas cheer. Visitors help the miners pan for Joystones, test the gems for “Christmas quality” and crack a souvenir geode to take home.

Northern Lights, Sugar Plum Fairy Village and a glittering ice cave await. Around every corner, magical decorations, interactive activities and festive atmosphere create holiday memories. Ruby Falls remains 60 degrees yearround, making it ideal for a holiday adventure, no matter the weather forecast.

“Now in its fourth year, Christmas Underground attendance continues to grow,” said Hollie Baranick, Ruby Falls tours and special projects manager.

“More families are looking for ways to add unique and exciting events to their holiday traditions. New this year, we are introducing a section of Joystone City where guests experience snow inside the cave to add to the magic of their journey.”

Admission is $11.95 for everyone ages 3 and older. Tickets combining Christmas Underground and the Ruby Falls waterfall tour are also available.
