Haven't heard a word - the one time we visited Universal during the Christmas season was in 2006 and they didn't have Grinchmas that year! Hopefully we can catch in someday.

I called Monday, They do not know the dates for sure yet. They should release them sometime in October. They way it sounded Grinchmas will begin the second week of December this year. One week after our scheduled trip. Have my fingers crossed they start the first weekend like every other year. We will be there Dec. 3-5.

Wow - you would think it would be open at Thanksgiving. It seems like a lot of work for just a couple of weeks.

They can't start on Thanksgiving. It takes alittle while to get some of the stuff from New York. It comes from the Thanksgiving day parade.

I've seen the floats from the Thanksgiving parade, but they were in US. I thought Grinchmas was in IOA - is the Grinch's lair in the parade as well?

Those are the dates for 2008. If they do it this year, it is likely to start around Dec. 5th.

Shell --- You are correct, Grinchmas is at IOA. They have the floats over at US for the Macy's Holiday Parade . . . Grinchmas at IOA is more of a stage show.

Wink I found it

Grinchmas 2009 will be 12/19 - 12/31!
It will be called the 13 days of Grinchmas. It hasn't been officially announced on Universals website yet, but they were holding auditions for characters last week and it specifically stated that the characters would need to be available for all performance dates (12/19-12/31)
