Overview
Time to get holly and jolly! See what spirits are made bright at Green & Red Coconut Club. Read more to find out about this festive lounge available on select nights during the holiday season.
The haunted affair at the widely successful Halloween overlay, Dead Coconut Club, has been replaced by tinsel and holly in Universal CityWalk’s Red Coconut Club’s newest seasonal shift, Green & Red Coconut Club. Long gone are figurines of familiar Universal Monsters as Universal Orlando Resort’s unofficial holiday mascot, Earl the Squirrel, has taken over this lounge.
Similar to hints left by Universal Orlando Resort’s creative team for Dead Coconut Club prior to its opening, we found at least one clue that insinuated what was coming this holiday season for Red Coconut Club. A Santa Claus Mug, Elf of the Shelf, and Green & Red Coconut Club menu were presented in the window display for a music shop facade in the New York area of Universal Studios Florida. As we watched the Resort transform into a magical winter wonderland over the last few weeks, this hint of an additional seasonal offering grew our anticipation.
On Green & Red Coconut Club’s opening day, November 18, we decided to join in the festivities for ourselves. During last year’s yuletide, Red Coconut Club was dressed with Christmas trees for an exclusive Universal Orlando Resort Annual Pass event and offered small bites and cocktails. As the doors have opened to all guests visiting Universal CityWalk this year, the theming was delightfully intensified with signs for various fictitious holiday businesses and an array of glowing, vintage Christmas decor lining the walls.
Our personal favorite portion of this seasonal offering was “The Attic” of the Green & Red Coconut Club. Journey upstairs to see a varied arrangement of holiday decor that could resemble your very own loft at home. Overall, this lounge has made us feel at home for the holidays.
This lounge will be open to rock around the Christmas tree on select nights until 1 AM.
