There is no set meet-and-greet line: he could pop up anywhere in the park, so families track him down and try to get a picture, scowl included, or see who in the group can make him smile. The Dec 12 date is billed as a second chance for anyone who missed him the first time. Grinch Day takes place during regular park hours (5–11 PM on Tuesday, 5 PM–midnight on Saturday) and comes with a regular admission ticket, which includes unlimited rides and photo ops. Ages 3 and under get in free; most rides have a 36-inch minimum height. ## Similar picks in Miami - [Silent Night sensory-friendly evenings at Christmas Wonderland](https://grassyknees.com/miami/activities/silent-night-sensory-friendly-evenings-at-christmas-wonderland--listing-2034b7dfd97e92f2cd9cb4f9) — Wed, Nov 18 (+2 more dates) · 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM · Tropical Park · All ages · Paid · sensory-friendly · checked Oct 27.
