Top 4 Winter Attractions in Branson for a Weekend Getaway

If you and your family are looking for a weekend getaway to break free from the monotonous work week, you’ll find some of the best reasons to make a quick drive or flight down to Branson here. Discover its fun attractions offered throughout the year — yes, even during the winter. 

In today’s post, iBranson discusses some of the best winter attractions offered in Branson, Missouri, and how we can help book your next all-inclusive trip! 

We all know Branson is famous for its abundance of live performances. But sometimes people forget that Branson offers a host of fun activities that’ll have you doing something beyond sitting in comfy theater seats. 

Here are just four of Branson’s top winter attractions to consider. 

1.) Indoor Water Park 

Get out of the winter weather by making a refreshing splash. Visit one of Branson’s indoor water parks like Castle Rock Resort and Waterpark. Spend the day using fun waterslides or relaxing in bubbly hot tubs. 

You can bring the family to Splash Country Waterpark, which includes both indoor and outdoor attractions. Choose from over nine unique water-based attractions, including a relaxing jacuzzi, hot tub and lazy river.

2.) Museums 

Bring the family to one of Branson’s many, many museums. The choices are pretty vast. But there are some great first-choice-picks for a fun family outing. For instance, the Titanic Museum is an incredibly fun choice. 

Immerse yourself in an all-encompassing, interactive experience onboard a ship-shaped gallery, where you’ll explore over 400 priceless treasures and hear first-hand recorded accounts of survivors. 

Some of the other amazing museums to consider visiting include places like the Hollywood Wax Museum, or Ripley’s ‘Believe It or Not’ Museum, home to hundreds of bizarre, jaw-dropping artifacts.

3.) Mini-Games

There are numerous mini-golf courses in Branson, like “Retromania,” an 80s themed black-light mini golf course, as well as “Dinosaur Canyon Golf” or “Greatest Adventures” mini golf. 

If that’s not enough, there’s also plenty of laser tag centers, like Grand Country Fun Spot or Ripley’s Super Fun Zone, that can serve as a great time for the whole family. And the plus side to lazer tag is you get to stay indoors and away from cold winter weather.

4.) Shopping…AND More Shopping 

Whether you’re taking a stroll through the Branson Landing, or visiting historic Main Street, there are plenty of specialty shops, boutiques and clothing stores to choose from. You can shop till you drop and take a break in one of the many amazing dining experiences scattered around Branson — especially on the Landing. 

You might pay a visit to Branson Craft Mall and get a quirky, unique gift for someone special, or shop around for bargain deals at the Tanger Outlets, which offer a wide selection of products for the whole family.
