Holiday Magic at Disneyland Park
Stroll down Main Street, U.S.A., beneath the iconic 60-foot-tall Christmas tree, and admire Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle, transformed each night with 80,000 shimmering lights for a snowy, sparkling display.
Guests can also experience the Holiday Time at the Disneyland Resort Guided Tour, featuring favorite holiday traditions, heartwarming stories about Walt Disney and his family, reserved viewing for “A Christmas Fantasy Parade,” and more. The tour is available for an additional cost, with more details coming later.
New Season’s Greetings
Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and friends will debut new holiday attire inspired by holiday travel and a wintery alpine gathering in Town Square.
Santa is also moving to a new location at Mickey’s Toontown Trolley Barn, near Roger Rabbit’s Car Toon Spin. And little ones can stop by “Bluey’s Best Day Ever!” at the Fantasyland Theatre to wiggle and dance with Bluey and Bingo.
Holiday Entertainment
The “Believe…In Holiday Magic” fireworks spectacular will light up the night with Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle, “it’s a small world” Holiday, or the Rivers of America as the backdrop. Guests can also experience magical “snowfall” at all three locations and parts of Main Street, U.S.A.
Along the parade route, “A Christmas Fantasy Parade” brings reindeer, toy soldiers, dancing gingerbread cookies, and more, ending with a grand finale featuring Santa Claus.
