 | It's not exactly the traditional image of a snowy Christmas... But theme park vacations are extremely popular for Christmas vacations and the Holiday Season. | |
Christmas at Disney World
Your regular park pass is your ticket to most of the Christmas magic at Disney World: the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights, the Holidays Around the World and the Candlelight Processional... Plus extra parades, special fireworks, and beautiful decorations in all the theme parks. You do need to buy special tickets -- and buy early!-- for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, which happens on multiple nights in the Magic Kingdom.
| Christmas at Universal Orlando
Meanwhile, in Orlando's other multiple theme park destination.... In the Universal Studios Florida theme park, the Macy's Holiday Parade is a daily event, with authentic giant balloons from New York City's famous Thanksgiving parade. And over at the Islands of Adventure theme park, Seuss Landing turns into a winter wonderland for Grinchmas, a celebration that includes a live musical show. Universal Orlando also has a major concert series headlined by Mannheim Steamroller, a group that's sold millions of Christmas albums worldwide.
| Hershey PA: Christmas Candylane
The HersheyPark theme park reopens for Christmas Candylane, with Santa and live reindeer, a Christmas show, a giant carousel and other decorated rides. Visitors can also enjoy Hershey Sweet Lights, a two-mile drive through woods filled with a million lights on 600 animated displays, the "Chocolate Town" Holiday Dinner Musical, and more.
