Check out everything that awaits you during the Christmas season at Universal Orlando Resort 2024.

 

Macy’s Holiday Parade at Universal Studios

One of the most iconic attractions of Christmas at Universal is the Macy’s Holiday Parade. Inspired by the famous New York parade, this spectacle brings to Orlando the grandeur of enormous balloons, elaborate floats, and beloved characters.

The parade winds through the streets of Universal Studios, filling the air with festive music and the Christmas spirit. You will marvel at the lively choreographies and the contagious energy of the performers. On weekends, the celebration continues with special performances of Christmas songs after the main parade.

 

Grinchmas at Islands of Adventure

At Islands of Adventure, visitors are transported to the magical world of Who-ville with the Grinchmas Who-liday Spectacular.
This enchanting show brings to life the story of the Grinch, the grumpy character who learns the true meaning of Christmas.
In addition to the main show, Grinch fans can enjoy special meet-and-greets with the character and his friends from Who-ville.

For an even more unforgettable experience, don’t miss the themed breakfast at Circus McGurkus restaurant, where the Grinch himself makes surprise appearances.

 

Christmas in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter

The areas dedicated to Harry Potter in both Universal parks gain an extra touch of magic during the Christmas season. At Universal Studios, Diagon Alley transforms with themed decorations, while at Islands of Adventure, Hogsmeade gains a unique charm.

One of the highlights is the spectacular “The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle,” where the iconic Hogwarts castle is illuminated with magical projections that tell Christmas stories from the Harry Potter universe.
The frog choir in Hogsmeade also delights visitors with their unique renditions of classic Christmas songs.

 

Decorations and special attractions

In addition to the main attractions, the entire Universal Orlando complex is dressed for the occasion.
Giant Christmas trees, magical wreaths, and lights everywhere create a truly enchanting atmosphere. Shops and restaurants offer special seasonal products and menus, allowing visitors to take a bit of the magic home.

 

Dates and tickets

In 2024, the Christmas celebrations at Universal Orlando will take place from November 22 to December 31.
One of the great advantages is that all these Christmas attractions are included in the regular park ticket, with no need to purchase special or additional entries.

Ticket prices vary according to the season and the type of ticket (one day, multiple days, park-to-park, etc.). It is advisable to check the official Universal Orlando website for updated information on prices and available promotions.

For special experiences, like breakfast with the Grinch, there may be additional costs and the need for advance reservations.
These activities usually cost around $30 for adults and $15 for children, but it’s important to confirm updated prices.

 

Comfort for the whole family with StrollerCare

Enjoying all these magical attractions can be tiring, especially for young children. To ensure the whole family fully enjoys the Christmas experience at Universal Orlando, it’s essential to have suitable and comfortable equipment.

Leaving stroller rental for the park is a bad idea; not only will you pay more, but the strollers are uncomfortable for children.
StrollerCare works exclusively with new, sanitized, and very comfortable strollers. They offer single or double models, suitable for all ages and weights.
