Christmas
Train A
Beloved Yearly Tradition
Continuing a decades-long custom, the Santa Express Christmas Train will bring the holiday spirit to the kids of Paramount from December 6th through 9th. The engine, gingerbread-house boxcar, sleigh car and caboose will make stops throughout the City with Santa Claus and his team of elves handing apples, candy canes and good cheer.
An average of 25,000 kids and parents line the streets to see and talk with the man in red over the four days and nights. It’s a muchanticipated event that has delighted generations of Paramount children.
For more information, please call (562) 220-2121.
Breakfast with Santa & Snow Day
Hit the Slopes at Paramount Park
Paramount Park will once again become a winter wonderland filled with tons of snow as Santa Claus comes to town for breakfast on Saturday, December 11th from 8 a.m. till noon.
