Universal Orlando Resort just announced all-new details for their new holiday offering Christmas in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Beginning November 18, in Hogsmeade The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle will light-up the night as Hogwarts Castle will be transformed in festive decor, candlelight and moments inspired by the films with the use of projection mapping. According to the Universal Orlando Blog you can expect to see “The ghosts of Hogwarts singing carols, students riding broomsticks and creating snowmen, a moment inspired by the Yule Ball and many more surprises.”
Along with the all-new nighttime show, the Frog Choir will be performing an entirely new show with a holiday theme.
Carols include:
- “Christmas at Hogwarts” – This wizarding carol casts a Christmas spell that echoes through the halls of Hogwarts.
- “We Wish You A Merry Christmas” – The choir will bring a new and festive life to this classic holiday song.
- “The Most Magical Yule Ball of All” – Hosting the TriWizard Tournament also brings with it a magical event known as the Yule Ball. This song captures all the magic, elegance and wonder of this very special night.
- “I Cast a Spell On Father Christmas” – This fun song is a cautionary tale asking young wizards to be sure of the incantation before casting a spell.
Over in Diagon Alley, Celestina Warbeck and the Banshees will also be singing a new holiday set list which include:
- “Nothing Like a Holiday Spell” – There are many spells and charms in the wizarding world. But during this time of year, conjuring warm feelings of yuletide cheer is the most magical spell of all.
- “Accio Christmas” – This calypso inspired song officially brings a Christmas rhythm of the islands to the British Isles.
- “My Baby Gave Me a Hippogriff for Christmas” – Have you ever received a gift that wasn’t exactly what you were expecting? This song describes one such moment our singing sorceress experienced.
- “A Witch and Wizard’s Wintry Wondrous Land” – This classic wizarding carol shows there’s nothing more lovely than sharing the Christmas season with family friends—and of course Celestina’s fans.
