New Latin-inspired event begins Jan. 1 at SeaWorld Orlando

Starting on Monday, guests can keep the holidays going with the all-new Three Kings Celebration at SeaWorld Orlando, running from Jan. 1-6.

Families can help commemorate the arrival of the Three Wise Men with festive, authentic cuisine and experiences in honor of the traditions of Latin cultures.

This new event features fan favorites from SeaWorld’s Christmas Celebration, as well as new experiences focused around the Epiphany, including:

• Three Kings Processional – Help welcome the Three Wise Men to a live nativity scene showing the arrival of the Three Kings. A storyteller will share the tale of their journey, as well as their traditions to guests. The processional will feature live animals, and take place throughout the day. There will also be a special photo opportunity for guests.
• Festive food and drinks – Theme park foodies can enjoy Latin-inspired food and drink prepared exclusively for the Three Kings Celebration. Menu items include empanadas (cheese, chicken or beef), authentic pinchos, miniature papas rellenas (fried stuffed potatoes), and bacalaitos (codfish fritters). Drinks include frozen sangria and frozen coquitos.
• Live musical entertainment – As guests enjoy the new holiday flavors, live musical street acts will get everyone singing along to a variety of Latin holiday favorites.
• Special Holiday Feast at Sharks Underwater Grill – Guests can indulge in a traditional Latin holiday dish at SeaWorld’s premier full-service restaurant, Sharks Underwater Grill.

Told through the eyes of the animals that were there, O Wondrous Night is a glorious cerebration with a host of angels and animals telling the story of Christmas. Guests can also have fun in a special sing-along before the show.
• Sea of Trees – Families can end their day at SeaWorld with a sea of glittering holiday trees that light up to music along the water. Over 100 trees are a part of this display, including a giant centerpiece tree that stands 70 feet above the water.
