Unwraps Spectacular Holiday Entertainment
With the Return of “Christmas in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” and “Grinchmas”
“Christmas in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” brings the spirit of the holiday season to the village of
Hogsmeade™ as the land is transformed with merry décor of shimmering lights, decorative garlands and festive wreaths. Guests can take delight in special holiday a cappella performances from the Frog Choir, stroll through the village shops while sipping delicious hot Butterbeer™ or savor festive fare at Three Broomsticks™.
Beginning at dusk each night, “The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts™ Castle” will dazzle with stunning imagery as the impressive light projection show illuminates Hogwarts™ School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, bringing the iconic Hogwarts™ castle to life and infusing the land with the sounds of an arrangement of music from the Harry Potter film series.
The spirited “Grinchmas” Who-bilation also returns with an all-new daytime performance featuring the
Who-Bee Doo-Wops group, Whoville’s latest musical sensation rocking out to hip-swinging, bell-ringing
holiday classics for the Whos and guests to enjoy.
The familiar and festive topsy-turvy 65 foot-tall “Grinchmas” tree, adorned with hundreds of ornaments and thousands of LED lights will stand tall within Universal Plaza, entertaining guests with a nightly tree lighting ceremony and snowfall flurry, bringing good tidings and season’s greetings to all.
“Grinchmas” activities will include photo opportunities with the GrinchTM and his faithful dog Max, a chance to spend time with Cindy-Lou Who as she leads daily story time for young guests looking to learn “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” and visit to the Whoville post office to mail a merry postcard sharing three good deeds.
A themed craft area will provide guests the opportunity for jolly holiday decorating by creating paper ornaments to adorn the Grinchmas tree or to take home as a holiday souvenir. Plus, a selection of themed
Who-tacular sweet treats, including the Grinch Donut and hot cocoa, will be available for purchase.
Adding to the theme park activities, Universal CityWalk Hollywood will be dressed for the holiday season
with spirited décor and a 40-foot-tall Christmas tree featuring more than 200,000 LED lights.
