SAN DIEGO (Nov. 13, 2020) – SeaWorld’s fan-favorite Christmas Celebration is back this year with an ocean of holiday cheer across more than 100 acres of outdoor space decked with sparkling lights, decorations, holiday festivities, and an earlier start than ever before! SeaWorld is open as an accredited zoo with limited capacity and enhanced health and safety measures. From sea lions, dolphins, penguins and sea otters, to Santa Claus himself, SeaWorld’s premier Christmas event kicks off November 13 and runs on select dates through January 4, 2021.

SeaWorld is ready to ring in the holidays! Treetops will glisten with twinkling lights at the Sesame Street Christmas Village where families can enjoy physically-distanced photo opportunities with everyone’s favorite furry friends. The ALL-NEW Santa Presents: Christmas Animals Around the World outdoor presentation features live animals (including camels and reindeer), representing how the holidays are celebrated in different parts of the world.

To celebrate the season safely, SeaWorld consulted with medical experts to offer a modified event with required reservations and limited capacity. This seasonal event features open-air entertainment and experiences as well as enhanced health and safety measures, including increased cleaning and sanitation, temperature checks, face covering requirements and physical distancing. Christmas Celebration is included with park admission and is free for Pass Members and Fun Card holders. Tickets are on sale now and advance reservations are required for all visitors to manage capacity. Starting November 16, holiday shoppers can dive into some deep-sea savings with SeaWorld’s “Black Friday” deals including incredible savings on annual passes and Fun Cards.
