Celebrate National Ugly Sweater Day in Style with Carowinds

Since 2011, National Ugly Sweater Day, also known as National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day, has grown to be a fun-filled holiday, which is the perfect way to kick-off the holiday season in style. This year, on Friday, December 17, the celebration gives our guests the opportunity to celebrate in style with one of Carowinds’ five ugly sweaters.
Wear your most garish Carowinds knitwear with pride and add some tacky accessories with hats and scarves!
Classic WinterFest Sweater
The cornerstone of the Ugly Sweater collection is the red and navy sweater with minimal patterns and fun fonts. It is the perfect blend of silly and stylish with a classic approach.
The classic WinterFest sweater is a park-exclusive, available at Jack Frost’s Ugly Christmas Sweaters.
WinterFest Grand Carousel Sweater
This sweater features nostalgic patterns from The Grand Carousel, the oldest ride at Carowinds. The bright red and turquoise hues make the sweater just slightly flamboyant.
The WinterFest Grand Carousel sweater is available online as well as in-park at Jack Frost’s Ugly Christmas Sweaters.
Fury 325 Sweater
The Fury 325 sweater is perfect for those over-the-top coaster fanatics and Carowinds devotees. Honeycomb patterns, neon colors of green and yellow, and the unmistakable Fury 325 logo make the sweater a unique fashion statement.
The Fury 325 sweater is a park-exclusive, available both at Jack Frost’s Ugly Christmas Sweaters and The Hive.
Copperhead Strike Sweater
Copperhead Strike, the first double launch roller coaster in the Carolinas, and the sweater named after it, is reminiscent of Granny Byrd’s Farm, featuring the infamous moonshine symbol, XXX.
The Copperhead Strike sweater is available online and in-park at Jack Frost’s Ugly Christmas Sweaters.
SCarowinds Sweater
Continue celebrating Halloween during the holidays with the SCarowinds sweater. Tombstones, skulls, and spiders create an elaborate spooky Halloween design.
