+ Why is Winter Wonderland a drive-thru event this year?
Westchester’s Winter Wonderland has been a beloved Westchester County tradition for almost 10 years. The Westchester Parks Foundation (WPF) enjoyed putting the event on in its original format with the circus, ice skating and rides and watching families experience Kensico Dam Plaza during the holidays. At its core, the event is a fundraiser and proceeds directly benefit the Westchester Parks Foundation to advocate for and invest in the preservation, conservation, use, and enjoyment of the 18,000 acres of parks, trails, and open spaces within the Westchester County Parks system. The shift to a drive-thru format in 2020 was necessary in order to continue the event and provide families with a safe way to celebrate the holidays and have since found this format to be the most sustainable at this time as a small organization. We are grateful for the support we have seen throughout the event’s iterations and look forward to creating lasting holiday memories with you!
+ How Long will the experience take?
It is expected that the Drive-Thru without traffic will take approximately 20-25 minutes. Please allow for longer times on nights when traffic is heavy!

You may arrive anytime within the 15-minute reservation window. For example, if your time slot is 6:45, you may arrive between 6:45 and 7:00. Please do not arrive earlier as you will be asked to wait.

+ What is the weather Policy?
Westchester’s Winter Wonderland is held rain or shine. If you elect not to attend on the night you hold tickets for, your tickets are neither refundable nor exchangeable. In poor weather, ticket holders should consult local weather forecasts for their own area and make their own determination about whether to set out for the evening’s event.
An event may be canceled by Westchester’s Winter Wonderland, in its sole judgment, extreme weather or other conditions could jeopardize the safety of visitors and staff. Generally, rain, snow flurries, or showers would not lead us to cancel, but extremely heavy rain, thunder, and lightning, very strong wind; blizzard conditions, heavy icing, or a prediction of such conditions could force us to do so. If Westchester’s Winter Wonderland determines that conditions warrant canceling an event, we will post a message on our website, social media accounts, and email all guests by 3:00pm day of scheduled event.
If Westchester’s Winter Wonderland cancels before the event starts there is no need to contact us. We will contact ticket holders via email for the affected day and time and automatically process a refund. Refunds may take 2-4 business days to appear on a credit card account. If you wish to go on another date, you must purchase new tickets at any available times.
