    Does anyone know what is going on at Disney World the first week of December? Most resorts are already booked up and the ones that are available are over double the price as the week before and after. Thanks!

    Hello Carisa! Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney!

    The Walt Disney World Resort theme park and resort hotel prices operate off of demand for a particular season or time of year. The prices that you see reflect the high demand for the Walt Disney World Resort around the holiday season! I guess people love spending the holidays with Mickey and Minnie! Schools are closed for long breaks and people enjoy spending the holiday season in such a happy place!

    I think part of the increased demand for December 2021 may be based upon an enthusiasm to return vacationing - especially to The Most Magical Place on Earth! Additionally, by December 2021, The World’s Most Magical Celebration, in honor of the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Walt Disney World Resort will be in full swing! 

    As far as any special events planned for the holiday season, we’ll have to await an announcement! We recently learned that the Halloween season will be celebrated with a Disney After Hours BOO Bash at Magic Kingdom Park! Perhaps Mickey will have a special event planned for Christmastime too!

    Keep in mind that money-saving deals are usually released a few months prior to the season. You might want to check the “Special Offers” page of the Walt Disney World Resort website in mid-to-late summer for some possible deals for the holiday season!
