From November 13 through January 3, SeaWorld San Diego turns into a holiday park with more than a million lights, nightly snowfall at SkyTower Lawn and Wild Arctic, and a run of Christmas shows for families. Children can meet Santa in Santa's Cottage on SkyTower Lawn, see two of Santa's live reindeer, take photos with Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer in the Holly Jolly Marketplace and watch the new Rock the Holiday Christmas Parade with Mrs. Claus and the elves. Shows include the new Dolphin Island Christmas at Dolphin Stadium, Clyde & Seamore's Christmas Special with sea lions and otters, Toymaker Trouble with Mrs. Claus and the Elves, a North Pole Storytime with audience volunteers, an elf DJ dance party and A Stocking Full of Soul at Nautilus Amphitheater. Each evening a tree-lighting ceremony takes place in Holiday Plaza and a laser light show runs at the front of the park; holiday fireworks are scheduled for Saturday, December 12 and New Year's Eve, Thursday, December 31. A snowflake scavenger-hunt map is sold at The Christmas Shoppe. The celebration is included with park admission, and rides and regular animal presentations continue with festive touches.
