If you’re someone who doesn’t like to celebrate the holidays before Halloween and Thanksgiving have passed, you may want to skip this post.

We’ve started to see holiday decorations pop up around Disney World, but we headed over to Universal Orlando to see if the same phenomenon was happening. While Universal is still focused on Halloween, Islands of Adventure is a different story — the holiday decorations are arriving!
During our park walk, we noticed holiday decorations all around the park — if you’re visiting soon, here’s where you can find hints of the winter wonderland!
Entrance
When you’re entering the park, you’ll notice some tinsel and garland spread above the entrance gates.

You’ll also find decorations all around the buildings as you continue on to the different lands of the park.

You can also find lots of decorations inside the Islands of Adventure Trading Co. store.

Isn’t it festive?
Suess Landing
Suess Landing is also already in the holiday spirit!

The whole land is covered in decorations, including entrances to rides…

…entrances to stores…

…and everywhere in between.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
Jurassic Park
Check out The Burger Digs — look at all those decorations!

Even the Jurassic Outfitters shop has some garland.

Ta-da! Thunder Falls Terrace has some greenery.

Toon Lagoon
Gasoline Alley even has a little tree display!

Doesn’t the sight of these trees at Photo Funnies make you feel all warm and fuzzy?

Super Hero Island
Everywhere we turned, we saw more trees, garland, and ornaments!

We’re LOVING these Spider-Man trees at the 5 & Dime Store.

We can’t wait to see more decorations appear in the parks as we get closer to the holiday season, so stay tuned to AllEars!
