The Green & Red Coconut Club has a new theme. Universal Orlando's holiday bar at CityWalk will be "Haus Noel" in 2026, an alpine pub and Christmas market that Universal says celebrates old-world holiday traditions "from the merry to the macabre."

The theme was one of a stack of details Universal Orlando released on Monday, October 19, filling in the holiday season it detailed in August. Universal posted the news to X, calling it "every delightful detail" for the season, and WDW News Today wrote up the full list from Universal's announcement. Holidays at Universal Orlando Resort runs November 14, 2026 through January 3, 2027.

Haus Noel

The Green & Red Coconut Club is the holiday version of the Red Coconut Club at CityWalk. Universal's description of this year's theme, as published by WDW News Today: "Warm yourself by the hearth of an alpine pub, wander an idyllic Christmas market and celebrate old-world holiday traditions, from the merry to the macabre."

Passholders get early access on Friday, November 20, from 3 to 5 p.m., before it opens to all guests. Universal's August announcement confirmed that the club was returning but did not name a theme. Last year's club leaned on Mistletoe Pines Ski Lodge signage and travel posters, according to WDW News Today's 2025 tour.

Universal's Holiday Parade featuring Macy's runs daily at 5:30 p.m. at Universal Studios Florida.
