While many states experience cold weather and snowstorms, the Sunshine State conditions feel perfect this time of year. WonderWorks Panama City Beach is the perfect winter break destination in December for guests of all ages. Families, groups, and individuals can have fun exploring all the hands-on opportunities inside the famous upside-down house that will keep everyone learning over the holiday break. 

“Come celebrate the holidays with us at WonderWorks!” said Darren Grooms, general manager at WonderWorks Panama City Beach. “Our facility is filled with exciting attractions, encouraging families to work together and learn something new.” 

When winter break comes around, many people are looking for things to do to keep their kids busy and to create family bonding experiences. It doesn’t get much better than spending the holidays in Florida, where the skies will be blue and sunny, the temperatures mild, and the opportunities for fun dialed up. Those visiting the Panama City Beach area will want to put WonderWorks on their itinerary this winter break. 

Guests can explore over 100 interactive exhibits, rides, and attractions that are great for everyone. The indoor amusement park for the mind offers something for guests of all ages, so anyone visiting is sure to have a great time. Having fun while learning is the best way to create a lasting education in young learners, and the upside-down house’s exhibits offer those opportunities for each and every guest.

The upside-down house has been decked out for the holidays, adding a special touch for the season. Guests are encouraged to stop by the Wonder Shop to find the perfect gifts for the science fans on everyone's list. From t-shirts, to science kits, to plushies, the Wonder Shop has it all. Pro tip: Groups of 15 people or more can visit the attraction at a discounted rate with advanced reservations. Gather the entire family and plan your visit today!

“The new year is right around the corner, so we’ve been eagerly preparing some great events and programs for 2025! There will be plenty of opportunities to save on tickets, get hands-on with the world of STEM/STEAM, enter contests, and so much more. We hope to see you soon!” said Amanda Hinzman, sales manager at WonderWorks Panama City Beach. 

WonderWorks Panama City Beach has great things planned for the New Year, continuing their mission of providing educational fun for all. In January, the winners of the annual youth art contest will be announced, and the winning artwork will be installed in the Wonder Art Gallery. Guests are invited to visit and check out the brand new "Nature of STEM" masterpieces created by local students. 

Homeschool groups and families will want to watch for the return of Homeschool Days in January and February 2025.
