Total Snacks, known for delivering fun-filled treats to events across the greater Miami area, is excited to announce the return of Dippin’ Dots and Doc Popcorn to Christmas Wonderland Miami at Tropical Park. From November 14, 2024, through January 5, 2025, Miami residents and visitors alike can indulge in America’s favorite flash-frozen ice cream and warm, buttery popcorn at one of South Florida’s most anticipated holiday events.
“We’re thrilled to be back for the second year in a row with Dippin’ Dots and Doc Popcorn at Christmas Wonderland,” says Eleazar Lopez-Contreras, co-founder of Total Snacks. “Seeing families and friends gather to celebrate the season with our treats last year was truly heartwarming, and we’re ready to make this holiday experience even more memorable for everyone who stops by.”
A Magical Holiday Experience at Christmas Wonderland Miami
Returning to Tropical Park, Christmas Wonderland Miami is set to captivate visitors with an expanded array of attractions and experiences. From the themed zones like HoliDade’s lively streets to the serene, snowy landscapes of Arctic Delight, guests will experience six immersive worlds, each featuring festive sights, sounds, and activities. New to this year’s lineup, Christmas Wonderland will also include additional rides, brand-new shows, and South Florida’s largest Ferris wheel—a spectacle visible from across the park’s skyline.
“Total Snacks is committed to bringing the best to each community we serve, and we’re honored to be a part of this incredible event once again,” Lopez-Contreras adds. “Christmas Wonderland combines Miami’s unique energy with beloved holiday traditions, and we can’t wait to see the joy on visitors’ faces as they explore all the festivities and treat themselves to our signature snacks.”
As part of the experience, visitors can venture along the Tinsel Trail, a half-mile path adorned with dazzling light displays, engaging photo opportunities, and festive decor. Christmas Wonderland’s zones each provide unique environments—from Santa’s Village to Toy Town—ensuring there’s something for every age and interest. Guests will encounter immersive setups ideal for photos, games, carnival rides, live performances, and Miami’s famous food trucks. Plus, the IG’loo 360-Dome offers a one-of-a-kind 3D-mapped holiday adventure.
“When we opened Christmas Wonderland at Tropical Park last year, the overwhelming response it received was humbling and we look forward to welcoming our community for an unforgettable 2024 holiday season,” says Tony Albelo, President of Loud And Live, the organization behind Christmas Wonderland. “This year, we’ve raised the bar with even more immersive experiences and surprises around every corner.”
Festivities for Families and Furry Friends
On select evenings, visitors can join Christmas Wonderland’s heartwarming “Home for the Holidays” initiative, in collaboration with Miami-Dade Animal Services, to support local pet adoptions. The event’s community-oriented approach to spreading joy continues, making it a cherished part of Miami’s holiday season.

About Total Snacks
Total Snacks’ mission is to always provide the highest quality snack food for people to enjoy wherever and whenever. The business began in 2015 by entrepreneurs Eleazar López Contreras and Mabe León-Ponte, a husband and wife team, who immediately noticed a lack of high-quality snacking options around their new home in Miami, Florida. From its humble beginnings as a single retail kiosk, the couple has worked tirelessly and creatively to bring the best in class snack foods to the region.
Today, Total Snacks stands out as the premier provider of snack foods and catering in Miami. Its products can be found in over 300 independent outlets, and the company provides contract catering solutions to some of the largest sporting and entertainment venues in the area, while bringing smiles to thousands of people a year through its corporate and private catering activities. Despite its success, Total Snacks has never wavered from its core mission to offer the highest quality snack foods and the best customer service.
