Here's another one of the procession, but the video quality is bad:

Wow! Thanks for sharing the trip report and all the pix of the Universal Hollywood Grinchmas event, Edge. Loved seeing all the happy Wholigans playing in real snow. Glad Universal is giving families the chance to experience a fun time in it as we don't even have snow fall in NorCal as of yet this year.
Loved the videos of the Wholiday shaw and the parade. It's cool that Universal not only included the Grinch and the Whos in the parade, but their other chacters, too - such as Woody the Woodpecker and Curious George.

Interesting, I was under the impression that they'd be getting a clone of the show that Orlando has which is fantastic. But interesting to see how they put them all over the park. Good job for their first go around of this.

It looks like they have a poor man's drive-by version of IOA's show on the backlot tour. Hey, it's better than nothing.

First time for this version anyway.
USH had the Grinch before. They had a snow slide and the Grinch walk-through where the House of Horror's is now.
I miss their Christmas with a Million Lights promo and the escalator made up as a candy cane the most though...

Has anyone actually been there yet? Seems like the Jungle Gym/ Air ball blasters would be a nice setting for the Grinch's Cave/ Mt. Crumpit. Then the waterplay area a Whoville (show?). And I don't know, the rocket covered up to be the x-mas tree??

I'm not going there this year. I'd sure like to see more pix of interactive areas such as you have mentioned, filmfreak. My new job starts January 1st, and I will definitely be at next year's Grinchmas!
