SeaWorld Orlando's Christmas Celebration 2019

Have you ever visited SeaWorld Orlando’s Christmas Celebration? It is one of my favorite Christmas things to do in Central Florida! It has been a few years since we have visited, hopefully we will be able to visit again this year. If you do get to visit don’t miss the O Wondrous Night show, it is worth the price of admission.

Gather your family and meet your festive friends at SeaWorld Orlando’s Christmas Celebration, taking place from November 23 through December 31. For five weeks only, the park is transforming into a winter wonderland with more than 3 million sparkling lights. Experience award-winning entertainment, from the ALL-NEW Sesame Street Christmas Parade to seasonal shows like O Wondrous Night; rub noses with Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer; or head to Wild Arctic and visit Santa himself. Also NEW this year, park-goers have the added chance to dine with jolly ol’ Saint Nick over a sumptuous holiday meal with the help of his Kitchen Elves. Don’t miss the unforgettable Christmas Celebration you can only find at SeaWorld.
