Presented by BOK Financial for 2022, Union Station expands and adds to its magical “Holiday Reflections” walk-thru holiday village. This spectacular themed experience fills Union Station’s massive Grand Plaza and features sky-reaching lights, dozens of decorated trees, forest friends and giant, floating mirrored ornaments PLUS a bigger-than-ever Rudy’s Wonderland where kids can ride the historic Jones Store Train (Mini Holiday Express Train). Immerse yourself in the holiday spirit with brilliant sights and sounds as only Kansas City’s historic home can deliver.
New this year and exclusive to Union Station in Kansas City, explore Santa’s secret wonderland where the elves live, and Christmas magic happens. Slip, slide, fly and glide through Lapland after boarding Santa’s magical sleigh and securing your personal HD Virtual Reality headset to begin your immersive journey. You’ll feel an incredible 4D range of sleigh motions, wind effects, sights and sounds. Joining you will be a delightful, animated character named, “D.A.S.H.”, who will guide you around the globe and even into space. Hold on to your hats and antlers … this could be a bumpy ride! This family-friendly experience will be one of the highlights of your holiday season and is conveniently located inside the wildly popular Holiday Reflections experience. The Magical Sleigh Ride VR seats up to 6 people and is available as a separate ticketed option. Ticket prices are $6 and must be purchased inside of Holiday Reflections.
