Let’s start with merchandise! You can’t go to a Disney party and not purchase some exclusive souvenirs. We spotted a LUG bag, lots of pins, shirts, an ornament, spirit jersey and more.

A modern holiday twist with Mickey and friends! Enjoy classic carols like “We Wish You the Merriest” and contemporary hits like “Text Me Merry Christmas.” Surprise visits from beloved characters like Woody and Jesse, Panchito and Jose, and Fantasyland favorites add to the magic.
Don’t miss Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, a holiday spectacle not to be missed! Twice nightly, at 8:30 PM and 11:00 PM, the parade winds its way through the park, starting in Frontierland and ending on Main Street, U.S.A. Featuring beloved Disney characters, marching toy soldiers, reindeer, and Santa Claus, this enchanting parade is a perfect blend of holiday magic and Disney charm.
The night culminates with Minnie’s Most Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks Show, a magical 12-minute spectacle featuring castle projections and a heartwarming narration by Minnie herself. Enjoy classic Christmas tunes like “Joy to the World” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” as the sky lights up with dazzling fireworks.
