When it’s Christmas in Orlando, do you find yourself missing the white wintery wonderland other states enjoy? Do you look around at the palm trees basking in sunshine while still wearing shorts in mid-December and consider packing up your life and moving north? Well, what if I told you there was a way to experience festive winter-like Christmas without leaving the Orlando area?
On select nights from November 17 to December 31, Santa Clause is coming to town. He’s bringing Rudolf and the gang, and they’re setting up his workshop at SeaWorld's Christmas Celebration. You and the family can visit him there and make timeless memories with excellent photo opportunities. And that’s only the beginning.
Get In The Holiday Spirit With A SeaWorld Orlando Christmas
The yuletide mood is set with the glistening Sea of Trees sparkling red and green and white in the heart of the park. If you choose to stroll through the market along the Bayside Pathway, the air is filled with the scents of cinnamon and spice and the sounds of carolers. You can mark names off your Christmas shopping list with gifts from the artisans selling their one-of-a-kind wares or snuggle up with loved ones and friends in front of the fire pit with a holiday craft brew. Wander through the model train village, and all the while watching out for the playful elves and the Christmas Council, a gang of street performers who will have you laughing out loud.
If holiday entertainment is what you’re after, Clyde and Seamore Countdown to Christmas in Orlando in their hilarious seasonal show. Elmo arrives with a Christmas wish, and he’s not alone. Join him and all his Sesame Street friends for a fun musical celebration. The night is wondrous with the O Wondrous Night live nativity – with over 30 carols, life-sized puppets, and live animals, it’s a version of The Christmas Story you won’t see anywhere else.
Even Shamu’s in the holiday spirit splashing his crowds with Christmas Miracles. And finally, the winter wonderland you’ve been dreaming of comes to life on ice with dazzling skaters who delight audiences against the backdrop of the Sea of Trees.
This year, when you find yourself wishing for a unique wintery Christmas in Orlando, SeaWorld's Christmas Celebration never disappoints. All the holiday events are included with regular park admission on the nights offered, and if you’re a pass holder you can go back again and again. Enjoy the season at the sea and have a happy holiday!
