ORLANDO, Fla. — The holidays are returning to SeaWorld Orlando with millions of lights, seasonal shows and the return of a longtime Christmas tradition.
SeaWorld Orlando’s Christmas Celebration will run on select dates from Nov. 6 through Jan. 4 and is included with regular park admission.
One of the biggest changes this year is the return of “Miracles,” the park’s holiday-themed orca presentation, for the first time since 2019.
The celebration will also feature the Sesame Street Christmas Parade, “O Wondrous Night,” “Elmo’s Christmas Wish,” “Winter Wonderland on Ice” and the nightly “Holiday Reflections” fireworks finale.
Guests can also walk through the Sea of Trees, featuring a 70-foot centerpiece, while holiday decorations, snow flurries and seasonal entertainment will be spread throughout the park.
Other returning experiences include Rudolph’s Christmastown, photos with Santa and holiday-themed Sesame Street characters. Guests can also ice skate at Bayside Stadium for an additional fee.
SeaWorld will offer several separately priced holiday dining experiences, including Dinner with Santa and the Sesame Street Christmas Breakfast.
The park will also mark Hanukkah from Dec. 4-12, Kwanzaa from Dec. 26-Jan. 1 and New Year’s Eve on Dec. 31. A Three Kings Celebration is scheduled for Jan. 3-6.
