Macy's Holiday Parade:
At Orlando's Universal Studios theme park, this parade rolls at sunset from early December through January 1, with authentic giant balloons and floats from the famous Thanksgiving parade in New York. And of course there's an opportunity to see Santa: he's the star of the show.
Grinchmas
If you've visited Seuss Landing (in the Islands of Adventure theme park) at any other time of year, you may have wondered: Where's the Grinch? In fact, he's not to be seen, except at Christmas-time, or rather Grinchmas-time, when Grinch and dog Max join frolicking Who's at decorated Seuss Landing. Celebration includes a new “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” show. Grinch Character Breakfast, too.
Also at Universal Studios theme park: Barney's Christmas Show, and Blues Brothers Christmas Show. (Both included with regular park admission.)

You'll find other special holiday events at Universal Orlando, too, such as a KidZone Holiday Show. Also, the CityWalk shopping/ entertainment area has decorations, horse-drawn carriages, live music, snow flurried, and appearances by Santa and his elves.
Meanwhile, Universal Orlando's three resorts have festive decor, carolers, tree-lighting, cookie decorating, holiday movies, and more. And if you stay at one of these resorts, you'll get a Front Of The Line pass for popular attractions in the parks.
