Overview

Weekends Nov. 19-Dec. 11, and daily Dec. 17-Jan 1

The moment you arrive at SeaWorld’s Christmas Celebration you’ll feel a wave of holiday spirit splash over you. Christmas fills that air and the Skytower sparkles after dark. Shamu’s Christmas show brings the season to life beneath the stars in a way you have to see to believe. In our wintery, watery wonderland, you can play in the snow at the all-new SnowWorld, enjoy stunning live shows inspired by the natural world, share a smile with a sea lion and get immersed in the wonders of The Polar Express 4-D Experience. Holiday music fills the air while you fill your belly on a delightful Breakfast With Shamu and Santa. See Shamu up-close and get your picture taken with Santa in his sleigh. And don’t miss the pet-stravaganza Christmas Tails show. With everything from elves to Elmo, and from Santa to Shamu, SeaWorld’s Christmas Celebration is where holiday memories are made.

Event included with park admission. Event talent, dates and times subject to change or cancellation without notice.
