“ICE!,” an annual staple every holiday season at Gaylord Palms Resort, will feature “A Charlie Brown Christmas” this year.
The event, which runs Nov. 17-Jan. 3, will use more than two million pounds of ice to create larger-than-life ice sculptures to create the nearly 20,000-square-foot attraction that is kept at 9 degrees.
