One of the most beloved holiday characters, the Grinch, can be found in the Universal parks during the holiday season; at Universal Orlando resort, there are three ways to meet your favorite “Holiday Cheermeister”. All options require a park ticket to Islands of Adventure.

The holidays will take place November 22- December 31, 2024 at Universal Orlando Resort.

  1. See the Grinch in the Grinchmas Who-liday Spectacular. This show is about 20 minutes long and runs multiple times each day. The line is standby only so we recommend arriving about 30 minutes prior to your preferred showtime; we think it’s worth it - you’ll get to enjoy a special Grinch-themed holiday show that is fun for the whole family.

  2. Meet the Grinch in Seuss Landing. Guests can join a standby line with the opportunity to meet the Grinch and even get a photo together. This line gets VERY long so if this is a priority we recommend heading here during your early entry (the Grinch typically will not start meeting until park hours officially begin).

  3. Dine with the Whos and meet the Grinch at the Grinch Character Breakfast. Start your day with a sit-down eat of festive food and fun for all! This is a special ticketed experience guests can purchase in addition to their park ticket - but beware, it does sell out. You can join the mean, green one himself (AND some special Whos, too!) for a special table-service menu. After breakfast is done, guests can meet the Grinch and get a photo together with a much shorter wait than the standby location. Prices for 2024 run $58.99 + tax for ages 10+, and $32.99+ tax for ages 3-9. Available dates at this time include November 22 and 24-30, December 1, 6, 12-15, and 18-30. This event is bookable now through the Universal app, but first book your holiday trip through your Goofy Getaways Travel Consultant!

An undeniable bonus of visiting Universal during the holidays is that so many festive experiences are included with your park ticket, from taking in exciting holiday decor, special seasonal entertainment, and more. We bet it will make your heart grow by three sizes.
