The Story Behind Long Island's ChristmasLand

Two Christmas event makers, one big idea, and six seasons of indoor Christmas at Tanger Outlets Deer Park.

Where it began

How ChristmasLand Started

ChristmasLand started with two people who love Christmas. Michael and Brandon crossed paths in the events industry, and each of them was already running Christmas events of his own.

Michael pitched an idea: combine their events into one indoor experience. That idea became ChristmasLand.

Today it fills 20,000 square feet on the second floor of Tanger Outlets Deer Park, with themed rooms, Santa and photo spots around every corner. 2026 is its sixth holiday season, and many of the families who visit come back year after year.
