🎄 Opryland's new holiday rules

Details: The hotel announced the move on Sunday, limiting options for locals who want to stop by during peak hours for a free glimpse at those famous decorations.

• The hotel stated that the new rules, which remain in effect through Jan. 2, were geared toward "capacity management."
• Visitors will still be allowed to stop by without a ticket or room key — provided they go during the week or arrive before 2pm on the weekends.
• Folks who arrive before 2pm on weekends can stay and stroll at their leisure.

If you go: Tickets are available for ice skating, carriage rides, pictures with Santa, and other Christmas events.
