Celebration is really nice at Christmas. It snows there too on select nights.

Some of the dinner shows have special Christmas shows, eg. Dixie Stampede. There is also a town called Christmas or Santa Claus or something that people travel to so they can post their cards from there....I think there are gorgoeus decorations in the hotels too.

Sorry not to be more specific, all this is from guidebooks!

What about Ice at the Gaylord Palms? Not Xmassy as such but definitely winter!

Parts of the Winter Summerland mini Golf have a Xmas theme too

In Celebration there is a month-long festival will be packed with holiday essentials, including photos with Santa, holiday carolers and the Celebration Express train ride.

Located at Celebration's Market Street.

Karen is right about Gaylord Palms, which is sort of Kissimmee (just around the corner anyway) , another link shows many events scheduled:

Also a drive around some of the villa communites where locals live is another idea as some of the houses are absolutely gorgeous with their decorations

Dee, I stuck Christmas, Florida in Google and there were loads of hits, this included:

Christmastime in Florida

What a beautiful time in Florida! Attractions, towns, houses, boats and even golf carts light up the season with millions of lights. Lights twirled around palm trees and large ornaments dangling from the oak trees. And not only do we have street parades, we have boat parades, and some neighborhoods have golf cart parades! So enjoy the perfect weather Floridians and visitors and have a Merry Christmas!

Christmas, Florida (east of Orlando, west of Titusville )
Yes, there is a town in Florida named Christmas! Send your holiday cards from "Christmas, Florida"!
