Universal Studios Hollywood will remain open on both Thanksgiving and Christmas in order to bolster its visitor figures for the year.

Larry Kurzweil, president of the Universal Studios HOllywood resort, said it was the first time the park had decided to stay open every single day of the year.

“Universal Studios Hollywood has always been a favorite destination for families to celebrate special occasions and also an ideal place to visit with out-of-town friends and family,” he added.
