SeaWorld Orlando's Sesame Street Christmas Breakfast Is Back With Elmo, at $39.99 for Adults, Up From $34.99 Last Year

Elmo is coming to breakfast again, and the bill is a little bigger this year. SeaWorld Orlando has added the Sesame Street Christmas Breakfast to its Christmas Celebration booking page, at $39.99 for adults.

The listing invites guests to "Celebrate the season with a festive breakfast alongside Elmo and his furry friends!"

• Where: Seafire Grill.
• When: check-in begins at 8:45am and the breakfast begins at 9am.
• Little ones: kids under 3 are free, but they still need a reservation.

Up $5 from last year

In an Internet Archive capture of the same page from December 9, 2025, the Sesame Street Christmas Breakfast showed "Prices Starting at $34.99." This year the page reads "Prices Starting at $39.99," a $5 increase.

One caveat on last year's number: in that same December capture, the ticket menu itself listed $24.49 for adults and $17.99 for children ages 3 to 9. The adult figure is exactly 30% below the $34.99 starting price, so it looks like a discount was running when the page was archived. The same capture carries a "Black Friday Sale" banner promising "Save up to 30%" on Dinner with Santa, whose $44.00 adult price showed as $30.80, also exactly 30% off.

Two other differences between last December's listing and this one:

• The free age now reads under 3. Last year's terms said children under 2 were free, although the 2025 ticket menu also listed an Infant (ages 0-2) ticket at $0.00. This year the terms say kids under 3 are free, but they still need a reservation.
• Only an adult ticket is listed so far. The 2025 capture included separate Adult (ages 10+), Child (ages 3-9) and Infant (ages 0-2) tickets. When we checked on October 20, the page listed just one ticket, Adult (ages 10+). If you are booking for kids ages 3 to 9, check back for a child price.

The $39.99 adult price matches SeaWorld's Halloween character meal, the Hotel Transylvania Monster Breakfast, which went to $39.99 for adults in September. The new Christmas listing even appears to reuse the Halloween breakfast's terms: its cancellation line says "Hotel Transylvania Breakfast will be refunded if cancelled 24 hours in advance."

On the menu

The buffet is built around chef-carved brown sugar glazed ham with bacon and turkey sausage links. The listing also names:

• Biscuits and sausage gravy
• Scrambled eggs and Western omelet eggs
• French toast sticks and potato tots
• Fresh seasonal fruit, yogurt and assorted cereals
• Freshly baked pastries
• Milk, juice and coffee

Gluten-free options are available. The menu is largely the same as last year's listing.

The breakfast joins the other Christmas add-ons on the page, including Cookies, Cocoa, & Milk Featuring a Special Holiday Guest, which dropped to $29.99 for adults this year.

Is $39.99 for breakfast with Elmo a holiday must, or would you rather spend it on cocoa and fireworks?
