Holidays at Walt Disney World Resort: Jollywood Nights & More!
The Walt Disney World Resort is gearing up for the holiday season with its cast members working tirelessly to bring the magic to life. Starting from Nov. 11, 2023, the resort is all set to welcome guests with a host of new attractions and exciting events. Disney Jollywood Nights, a new separately ticketed event at Disney's Hollywood Studios, is one of the major highlights of the season. It includes new live stage shows, special character greetings, and the Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Nighttime spectacular finale. Guests can also indulge in delectable treats and cheerful sips, dance the night away, and enjoy many of their favorite attractions.
There are two mesmerizing new shows at the Theater of the Stars that will immerse guests in the joy of the holidays.
The first one is Disney Holidays in Hollywood, a star-studded variety show in the grand tradition of Tinseltown holiday specials.
The second one is "What's This? Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along,” where guests can sing along to beloved songs from the iconic film and discover peculiar magic in unexpected places.
Another new attraction this season is the Frozen Holiday Surprise at Magic Kingdom Park, where Frozen friends from Arendelle are conjuring up something new and extra-special for the holidays. Olaf and more than 100 of his Snowgie siblings decorate Cinderella Castle with festive touches. Appearing live on stage in new holiday looks, Anna, Elsa, Olaf, and Kristoff each bring something special to the gathering. Festivities culminate as Elsa adds sparkling finishing touches, transforming Cinderella Castle into a shimmering crystallized palace.
Apart from these, there are many other attractions and events that guests can enjoy, such as the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays presented by AdventHealth, the Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll presented by AdventHealth, and the Merry Menagerie of life-size, artisan sculpted animal puppets daily on Discovery Island at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park.
Disney Springs is a perfect holiday destination for guests who love to shop, dine, and play amidst a wonderland of beautiful decor and an incredible selection of dining options. The entertainment district is all set to welcome guests from Nov. 10, and visitors can't afford to miss the Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll presented by AdventHealth. Nineteen Disney-themed trees will be on display throughout the shopping, dining, and entertainment district. Visitors should plan at least one nighttime visit to experience snowfall in Town Center and make unforgettable memories.
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park is another must-visit destination during the holiday season. Cheerful decor and festive flotillas are some of the holiday highlights at the park. Guests can interact with a Merry Menagerie of life-size, artisan sculpted animal puppets daily on Discovery Island and meet their favorite Disney characters and Santa himself. The park's iconic Tree of Life also awakens each evening with a colorful tableau of wintry tales accompanied by a musical score.
There's so much to see and experience at Walt Disney World Resort during the holiday season that there's no end to the delight it inspires. Plan your visit today and get ready to make unforgettable memories.
