UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif.—Universal Studios Hollywood is getting into the holiday spirit this week, with the return of fan favorites “Christmas in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” and “Grinchmas” beginning Nov. 25.

The Harry Potter event includes “The Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle,” a light projection show that will “amaze audiences with its stunning imagery and animation as the castle infuses the land with joyous wonderment and features music and sounds from the Harry Potter film series,” park officials said.

For “Grinchmas,” guests can take in a 65-feet-tall holiday tree in the heart of the theme park decorated with hundreds of ornaments and thousands of LED lights. Every evening, a jovial tree lighting ceremony will take place while the Grinch himself tells his story along with the Who-ville Whos, ending in a snowball flurry.
