I am planning on going to Sea World on Dec. 19th. Do you think I will have any trouble seeing all the evening Christmas shows in 1 evening? Thanks

Probably......I seem to remember thinking the whole stadium of people watching the Clyde show would walk over to the Shamu show, etc. Might not have the greatest seat at each show, but they will still be fun.
 
Here is the interactive map: http://www.seaworld.com/orlando/parkmaps.html

And this is the Show Schedule for December 19th

Clyde and Seamore's Countdown to Christmas
6:30 p.m.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shamu Miracles
7:30 p.m.
Shamu Stadium
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Winter Wonderland on Ice
8:30 p.m.
Bayside Stadium
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fireworks
9:00 p.m.
Bayside Stadium

Most of the shows are 20-30 minutes long -The christmas Shamu Show alot of people wait 45 minutes on line to get a good seat. So by the time you get out of the Sea lion show you have to race over to shamu stadium to get a seat (most likely up high)
 
Its definitely doable. I just did it yesterday with my family.(day after Tday.) Like was mentioned before, dont plan on the best seats everytime, and dont get sidtracked going from 1 stadium to the next.

Uh, we have a problem that I just discovered will be a problem for me, too.

the christmas shows will only be shown on WEEKENDS until Christmas week and then they will be nightly . If the park is closing at 6PM on a day when anyone plans to go, there will not be Christmas shows.

The 19th is not a Saturday or Sunday so there will not be any Christmas shows.

Oops forgot to change the online calendar to Dec when I checked. We planned on going on a Friday, though so still out of luck unless I wait till Christmas week
and that probably is out of the question with my job. :-(
 
Hubby went the other night and says you can easily do all the shows. He didn't get there till 2 pm and the only one he didn't do was the Sesame Street show. You can see his cell phone video clips if you click here (I let him do a guest review on Examiner since I didn't go with him). He really, really liked the shows.
 
Thanks for the information. My biggest worry was getting out of one show and the next show being full. I'm not concerned about getting the best seats in the house. Just getting in somewhere.
 
it was actually 4:30pm when I got there. And of course I had to catch a pair of rides on Manta and Kracken first, before starting on the shows.

the Sea World web site states that weekends only until Dec 13. then daily from Dec 19 to Jan 3.

on Nov 29th there were seats available in both the Sea Lion and Shamu shows,
but Bayside was full before the ice show started, and it seats 5,000. The Quick Queue has reserved seating in Bayside for the show, I don't know what they will price it for the Christmas holidays but it was $14.95 on sunday.

Just looked at the videos. Somehow we have to change our plans and get there on a weekend or during Christmas week. Can't wait to see them...

Thanks for posting the videos!
 
Here's a full review, with pics.
We got there at 4:30, rode Manta, rode Polar Express. Missed Sesame Street, but did the shows in order of time, and were able to get pretty decent seats. Did not do the Ice Skating show, but you can see the fireworks from the stadium. Now, you're talking about going Christmas week....don't know how doable that's going to be, as the crowds will be swelling at that point.

If the day after Thanksgiving was any indication of how Christmas week is going to be, I dont think there is going to be too much of an issue. I was really surprised that they were not using the Turtle lot across the street, or that the park hadnt closed due to capacity.We got there right around the same time as you did, and got row 32.
