Today is the beginning of the holidays at Universal Studios Hollywood!
Seasonal favorites such as “Christmas in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” and “Grinchmas” will begin Thursday, November 28 and run until Sunday, December 29, 2019.
“Christmas in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” adds holiday warmth and cheer to the quaint town of Hogsmeade village, with seasonal décor uniquely themed to each of the individual storefronts and a dazzling light projection spectacular bringing the iconic Hogwarts™ castle to life.
As night falls, “The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts™ Castle” illuminates Hogwarts™ School of Witchcraft and Wizardry with colorful imagery and impressive dimensional animations that dance across Hogwarts castle in tandem to a musical arrangement from the Harry Potter movies.
Musical performances from the a cappella Frog Choir entertain guests with their harmonized holiday themed songs and fill the land with holiday cheer.
In time for the holiday season, a wide selection of Christmas ornaments created for “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” will be available.
Collectibles include a decorative Hogwarts castle snow globe, Hogwarts
crest and mascot ornaments representing each of the four houses, wizard card ornaments, and more.
Holiday-themed fare and hot Butterbeer further complement the overall experience.
An all-new “Grinchmas” tree, over 55 feet in height and adorned with hundreds of ornaments and thousands of white and multi-colored LED lights choreographed to music, brightens the merry “Grinchmas” Who-lebration.
“Grinchmas” tree lighting ceremonies take place every evening, accompanied by a snowfall flurry, bringing this annual favorite to life, creating a festival of fun fit for The Grinch, his faithful dog Max and a roster of Who-ville Whos.
Holiday décor will be put up throughout the theme park, bringing a crew of very merry and mischievous Minions to “Despicable Me Minion Mayhem” and “Super Silly Fun Land” to spread Christmas cheer to visitors of all ages.
Universal CityWalk’s spectacular 40-foot tall Christmas tree will once again glisten with 200,000 LED icicles choreographed to the lights and sounds of the season as the magic of the holidays comes to life in the “5 Towers” outdoor plaza along with free concert performances and an eclectic ensemble of talented street performers.
CityWalk’s iconic, dancing water fountain with over 230 individual power jets will continue to mesmerize guests when it projects streams of choreographed water to holiday-themed music.
The holidays at Universal Studios Hollywood is included in the price of theme park admission.
