Uranus has a tilt of 98 degrees. This means that during part of its orbit, its south pole is tilted almost directly towards the Sun. At another part of its orbit, it is the north pole that is tilted almost directly towards the Sun.

Why do Seasonal change?

Seasons change because the Earth revolves around the sun in a period of one year; you have the southern hemisphereand the northen hemisphere of the Earth. Earth is tilted with respect to its orbit around the sun. So when our North Pole is tilted toward the sun, we get summer in the Northern Hemisphere (winter in the south). When the South Pole is tilted toward the sun, we get winter. So if a planet is tilted with respect to its orbit around the sun, it should have seasons
