EPCOT is celebrating the holidays in big and little ways.

EPCOT
There is EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays happening now, which celebrates different holiday traditions around the world. Of course, we’ve seen the incredible holiday overlay of Living with the Land. But there is one adorable part of EPCOT that is celebrating the holidays, and you are probably walking right past the decorations.
The Seas pavilion in EPCOT can be found in the World Nature section of the park. We love coming here not only to ride The Seas with Nemo & Friends but also to see the impressive aquarium full of fish, dolphins, turtles, and even Mickey Mouse scuba diving from time to time.

The Seas
But our reporters love to visit the small tanks to see the adorable sea urchins and cuttlefish. You can sometimes find them with teenie, tiny Mickey hats on, and seriously — how can you not smile at that?

Mickey hat!
These tanks have gotten a fun holiday overlay. We stopped by to check out the decorations, and we just had to share these photos with you. While most of these are not new, they still deserve some recognition. We found this Menorah in one of the tanks, and it’s even “lit” for the holiday.

Next, we saw some of our sea urchin friends who were feeling festive! Check out this one in the Santa hat…

and this one with its antler hat on! We’re not sure what CMs are responsible for this cuteness, but we want to say THANK YOU.

Reindeer
That’s not all, though. There is even a fireplace, so the little critters can stay warm on those chilly winter days. Our biggest question is, is Santa coming down this fireplace to fill those tiny stockings? Are all of the fish on the nice list?

Keeping warm by the fire
In the Cuttlefish hatchlings tank, there is a whole Christmas village. This is new for this year, and we are so happy about this addition. Look at all of those tiny houses and their decorations.

Christmas Village
We hope this brings a little Christmas spirit to you. For more Disney stories and news, be sure to follow us at DFB.
