Universal at Christmastime

[lizanne]

This year were going to WDW in December, and we're thinking about going to Universal one day. We really enjoy Christmas decorations and we're wondering what Universal has as far as Christmas lights, displays or shows.

Thanks for any info

We were at IOA on 1/8/2005, which was the last day for the Christmas activities and decorations. We saw the "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" show and some a cappella singers doing carols. Both shows were in Suess Land and were wonderful. The decorations were well done in that area too. I don't really remember much as far as decorations in the other areas. There was also The Macy's Thanksgiving Parade in Universal Studios but we didn't make it to that. We were back later in the week and there was no sign of Christmas anywhere.

We went a couple of years ago. Grinch is a great show. The Macy's parade is also very nice. The decorations are nice, but Disney's are probably better. You can also go "sled" riding at IOA. They make an ice hilll and you ride down, kind of like at a water ride. We enjoyed it all.

We were there in Dec. 2002, and our only regret is that now we want it to be the Christmas season every time we go.

We loved Grinchmas! We feel cheated by going during a time when we can't see the mean & green Grinch! He has become a family favorite.

I thought Santa at Universal was the jolliest ole elf I'd ever seen.

Am I correct in remembering that there was a Christmas tree farm at US?

I REALLY enjoyed the holiday music that played in the park.
