SeaWorld’s Christmas Celebration: Where the season meets the sea

[919Florida]

Starting Saturday SeaWorld transforms into a Winter Wonderland. One of my absolute favorite times of the year to visit. From Nov 23 - Dec 31 on select nights enjoy SeaWorld's amazing Christmas Celebration. The park is all decked out with Christmas decorations and lights. From end to end. Its truly beautiful.

The park has so many shows and sights to enjoy. Best of all admission to SeaWorld's Christmas Celebration is included in your park admission. No extra fees.

• Shamu Christmas Miracles - Evening show watch as Shamu shares with you what a miracle is on a journey to the heart of Christmas.
• Clyde and Seamore’s Countdown to Christmas - The most hilarious show of the season. Clyde and Seamore journey together to search for Santa making sure they have everything done prepping for the big guys arrival from decorations to shopping in the mall.
• O Wondrous Night - A beautiful show as a live choir sings over 30 Christmas favorites in this story of Christmas told through the eyes of the animals (puppets at first then become live animals) that were there. Each one has a different version of what happened but in the stirring finale see that they were all important.
• Winter Wonderland on Ice - Ice skating in the heart of Orlando Florida. Watch as the skaters amaze you with their moves skating to your Christmas favorites
• Holiday Reflections: Fireworks and Fountains Finale - Soaring fountains, dazzling lights, and festive fireworks, choreographed to joyous holiday musical favorites.
• Sea Of Trees - More than 100 massive trees, each sparkling, lighted and choreographed to classic holiday tunes, making a dramatic display around SeaWorld’s center lake
• THE POLAR EXPRESS - Board the Polar Express for your adventure to the North Pole to see Santa himself along with other arctic animals like Beluga Whales and a Polar bear and more.
• Snow Flurries - Enjoy Snow Flurries along the water front at SeaWorld as you stroll along enjoy the lights, entertainment and more while sipping on your hot chocolate.

We went to it last year and were very impressed. Lots of live music throughout the park, and the lights were really beautiful.

I love the Polar Express.

It is awesome. Not sure if you know but in the Gift Shop they are selling the Christmas bell in a special bag and it it has a little keychain on it that looks like the conductor had in the movie that he punched the word BELIEVE in. Its so cute. A very special gift to someone in deed. THe polar express ride and post show area is so very well done. I like it a lot.

Our first trip I took pictures of my daughter and she was barely as tall as the presents they use as scenery. Now she could sit on them if I let her. The Polar Express holds many special memories for our family.

Glad you had such a good time CaptainessKylie. Its pretty amazing. THe whole park is covered in Christmas lgihts not just the entrance. THe shows are beautiful and well done and the very festive Christmas pathway is so fun to walk around. And like you said Polar Express is amazing. All is incldued in standard admission. No upcharges for such an amazing expereince. Its a family tradition for us all to go here and get a picture in the giant snowglobe too.

I have never been to SW during the holidays- how does it stack up to the other parks? I do have a premium AP, and points for a free night at a Hilton- trying to convince the hubby that I will possibly die if I don't get up to Orlando this month-he isn't buying it though. Any pictures would be appreciated so I may experience my park holidays vicariously

We went last year and really enjoyed it much better than any of the Disney parks. There are lights everywhere, excellent shows, and live music throughout the park. I'll post some pictures when I get on my desktop.

There is nothing like a SeaWorld christmas. I jsut took my entire family for the first time this past weekend and they could not beleive what they have been missing. The beautiful Christmas shows, Sea of Trees and lgihts all over the park and strolling entertainment. I have pictures on my Facebook page but cant access Facebook from work. I will post them later tonight when I get off. Trust me you will be glad you went.

I honestly believe that SeaWorld's Christmas program is the BEST offerings here in Orlando when you look at the quantity of offerings and the value of what you pay!

If you are an Annual Pass holder it is a no brainer! You have to go! But if you are visiting just look at the line up, and you realize, that already at SeaWorld there is a full day's worth of activities, and then when you add all the shows at night, you have an amazing jam packed day worth of great shows, rides and experiences.
