Excited about the Epic Universe holiday lighting news! If we make a holiday trip, probably won't include Epic this year, but when it's a part of UOAPs, I'm definitely going next year!

Glad to hear Epic is getting something year one

Excited to see how even more beautiful they can make the lands

It is my understanding that they have changed the tour to day time only. It has been an a really great experience over the past few years at night and I don't quite see the value/point in doing this during daytime hours.

Yeah - it now starts at Noon. Weird move.

Celestial Park Holiday has the potential to be spectacular. Can't wait!!!

If the tour doesn’t include an exclusive Earl meet and greet, I don’t care.


That’s not true. $80 for front-of-line Grinch and cookies is kinda worth it.

I was looking at past reviews of Holiday Tours and they included private viewings of the Hogwarts castle show - weird that they'd just remove that.

We're coming for the Holidays this year for the first time and I was considering doing it - but I'm really not sure now lol

looking at it, in the past it was at night, generally it started w/ the last Grinch show and then you saw the Tree at the Studios when the park was closed and also the castle show after park close.

it seems the tours are now during parks hours -- they seem to have added parade viewing and priority access to a ride -- that seems to be what has changed -- but meeting Santa, the Grinch, and Max tend to sell my fam on this tour -- if it makes the show and the parade easy as well -- even better!

When I have done the tour, it was always a separate private showing of the show. Additionally, the parade viewing(if you check in and arrived early) was an option and so was the ride; we did Villain-con the last two years.

Big downgrade of the tour situation

Four hour waits for the grinch vs not. I think it’s a no brainer if you want to see him.

How come UOR doesn't do two M&Gs for The Grinch like Mickey? Increase capacity, more photo experiences, more happy guests, etc.

They don't get enough qualified actors?
