Christmas won’t be Christmas without a visit to Beau Rivage, MGM Resorts International’s beachfront destination in Biloxi. For more than 25 years, Beau Rivage has transformed the resort with festive décor, seasonal promotions, entertainment and activities for all ages, and spectacular shopping for everyone on the list.

“This is the time of year our guests and visitors to the Mississippi Gulf Coast have come to know and love,” said Beau Rivage President & COO Brandon Dardeau. “A visit to Beau Rivage continues to be a favorite family tradition with special menus and a full calendar of events that brings the spirit of the season alive. We invite everyone to experience the holidays with us.”

Step into a winter wonderland with life-sized nutcrackers, giant Christmas ornaments, a forest of frost-covered trees and thousands of brilliant red poinsettias decorating the atrium. And when guests look up, they spy on Santa’s sleigh pulled by his reindeer, heading toward a towering 25-foot Christmas tree. Classic winter scenes also dot the atrium and throughout the resort to bring out the childlike wonder for all.

The jolly old elf himself makes a special appearance on Dec. 7 for Beau Rivage’s signature event “Christmas with Santa – A BR Prime Experience.” The resort’s award-winning steakhouse is transformed into a winter wonderland – a perfect setting for creating memories of a lifetime with Santa and other holiday characters. Guests can enjoy an expansive presentation of brunch offerings like fresh seafood, Filet Mignon, live action cooking stations, traditional breakfast offerings and holiday pastries, as well as Bloody Mary’s, Mimosas and more. A commemorative photo and limited-edition keepsake gift mark this memorable holiday occasion. Reservations: Christmas with Santa at BR Prime Steakhouse.

A CHRISTMAS STORY: THE MUSICAL COMING TO BEAU RIVAGE DEC. 12-27

A Christmas Story, the hit Broadway musical based on the beloved holiday film and best-selling book, will play MGM Resorts International’s Beau Rivage this holiday season for a limited 24-show engagement Dec. 12 to 27.

Produced and directed by Jeb K. Rand of Rand Productions, who has produced Grease, Footloose, and Elf the Musical for the Beau Rivage stage, A Christmas Story the Musical will be a tribute to the original, traditional, one-hundred-percent, red-blooded, two-fisted, all-American Christmas. The classic story comes to life in this heartwarming and hilarious telling of nine-year-old Ralphie Parker and his unwavering quest to score his ultimate Christmas gift, an Official Red Ryder carbine-action 200-shot Range Model air rifle. This must-see production show includes all the iconic scenes from the movie: Ralphie’s friend Flick getting his tongue stuck to the flagpole; his brother Randy getting dressed in his snowsuit; the bullies, Farkus and Dill; the leg lamp award; the bunny suit; Christmas dinner; and many others.

The delightfully versatile score ranges from gentle ballads to show-stopping full-ensemble numbers such as “Ralphie to the Rescue!”, “A Major Award,” “Sticky Situation,” “Up on Santa’s Lap,” “Somewhere Hovering Over Indiana,” and the inevitable “You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out!” Join Ralphie Parker in his pursuit and experience the magic, nostalgia, and laughter this holiday season. Tickets are on sale now starting at $25 and family four-packs also are available starting at four for $60 at beaurivage.com.
