Experience the ultimate holiday extravaganza with Minions, The Grinch, and the whimsical Whos as Universal Studios in Orlando welcomes back the festive season running from now until December 31, 2023. Prepare to unleash your holiday spirit as the parks unveil a magical array of delights from spectacular parades and shows and so much more.
Witness the enchanting "The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle" in Hogsmeade and encounter the notorious Grinch himself. (Don't be scared, he's much nicer in person!) Universal Orlando is set to dazzle guests with abundant experiences tailored for this holiday season. Before embarking the holidays at Universal Studios in Florida, here's your guide to all the festivities awaiting you at Universal Studios Orlando this month.
I was lucky to be invited to experience the fun first-hand, and let me just say, if you need something to pull you into the holiday spirit a visit to Universal will do the trick.
To start, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is decked out in Yule Ball-inspired décor, hosting "The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle" – a breathtaking projection show.
Guess who else is making an appearance this season? A cherished character who guests of all ages will immediately recognize - the Grinch!
Grinchmas takes over Universal too, with live retellings of the beloved story. See the live show firsthand, where The Who’s of Whoville come together to sing and dance and find the true meaning of Christmas.
The heartwarming "Universal’s Holiday Parade featuring Macy’s" brings giant balloons and fan-favorite characters to life, while top-selling holiday artist Mannheim Steamroller serenades guests at Universal Studios Florida on select dates.
Pro tip: position yourself along the nightly parade route by the giant tree across from The Mummy ride. At the end of the parade, when Santa Claus makes his appearance and lights the tree for all to see!
And while we’re at it - let’s talk treats! The chefs and service wizards of the park have come up with a themed set of treats, from savory to sweet, to elevate the experience.
From Grinch-themed goodies to holiday-loaded vegan options, the seasonal food and drinks add a delicious touch to the festivities.
But wait, there's more! The newly themed Holiday Tribute Store is a treasure trove, featuring themed rooms and a variety of seasonal merchandise.
And if you really want to make an entire weekend out of it, make sure to visit any one of the various hotels that are getting in on the fun.
Universal’s Endless Summer is one of the hotels that has combined both the laidback summer vibes with a holiday to remember.
If you're ready for a jolly holiday adventure, one that the entire family will remember for decades to come, head to Universal Orlando for all the holiday fun.
And make sure to tell The Grinch that OnlyInYourState sent you!
