Visited Disney World and Universal; Which Theme Park Better Right Now?

• I’ve been visiting Universal and Disney World during the holidays for almost a decade.
• Both destinations offer festive activities at different price points.
• Right now, Universal seems to offer the best overall value.

Since moving to Florida with my family eight years ago, we’ve spent every holiday season visiting Disney World and Universal Orlando.

Both offer theme parks, resorts, and entertainment districts filled with holiday activities and events. There’s truly something for every budget, whether you want to walk around Disney Springs’ Christmas trees for free or purchase a VIP holiday tour at Universal.

This year, I spent nights at the resorts’ movie-themed parks, Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Universal Studios Florida, to compare their holiday offerings.
