The Seas with Nemo & Friends

Cast Members at The Seas with Nemo & Friends in EPCOT create a special menorah to celebrate Hanukkah. Walt Disney World is really good about making sure they celebrate every Holiday during this festive season. That includes Christmas, Kwanza, and the Jewish Holiday of Hanukkah. Dr. Mark Penning and the Disney Animals, Science, and Environment just showed us one of the interesting things they have going on.

As we continue to ring in the holiday season across Walt Disney World Resort, cast members at The Seas with Nemo & Friends at EPCOT created a special menorah to honor the weeklong celebration of Hanukkah.

Each night, aquarists on Disney’s Animals, Science, and Environment team place a piece of frogspawn coral to represent candle flames. Tonight is night three of Hanukkah, and these photos represent what the menorah will look like when fully “lit” as we celebrate all eight nights.


This unique menorah was created with a 3-D printer and is just one of the ways our cast creates magic and highlights the many traditions of our guests from around the world.

If you’re visiting EPCOT between now and Dec. 25, stop by the mariculture section on the second floor of The Seas with Nemo & Friends to see this wonderful creation.
