Wait, hold up, what’s going on here?
It’s kind of a funny story, but…here goes. Did you know one-sixth of each year at theme parks revolves around religious festivities…even though not everybody celebrates Christmas?
In the name of inclusivity (and our love of all things ogre), we’ve spent each holiday season (since 2020!) rallying around a non-denominational character everyone can enjoy: the lovable green swamp king, Shrek.
What started as a silly holiday celebration has now become a hilariously in-depth series focused on the history, culture and community surrounding our beloved ogre Shrek.
Each December, we’ll share unique reported stories on Shrek and the wildly passionate world surrounding him.
So, grab some onions, belch real good and welcome to our Shrekcember festivities!
