Welcome to planDisney, Cindy!
I’m so glad you stopped by with this festive question - it’s the perfect time to plan for the most magical time of the year at Disney World! Guests can visit
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom or
Disney Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios during this year’s holiday season. I was lucky to attend both events last year with my planDisney classmates, and we had the very best time! From sharing Christmas cookies and pretzels while watching Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks to laughing while making memories and snapping Disney PhotoPass photos - we truly had an incredible time in both parks!
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party takes place on select nights from November 7 through December 21, 2025. The official hours of the party are 7:00 PM until midnight; however, Guests can enter
Magic Kingdom as early as 4:00 PM without needing a theme park ticket. Don’t miss Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, complimentary cookies, hot cocoa and cider!
Disney Jollywood Nights will sparkle at
Hollywood Studios on select evenings from November 8 through December 22, 2025. This evening begins at 7:30 PM and ends at 12:30 PM. Guests will be able to enter the theme park with a dated party ticket as early as 5:30 PM.
Here are the dates for both events:
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas PartyNovember 7, 10, 11, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 21, 25, 26, 28, 30
December 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 12, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21
Disney Jollywood NightsNovember 8, 15, 17, 22, 24, 29
December 1, 6, 10, 13, 17, 20, 22
If you are considering attending either event, I highly recommend purchasing your ticket soon, as dates do sell out.
Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club Members can save on tickets on specific event dates, so be sure to log in to see the discounted prices.
I hope this helps you choose the celebration that best fits your family’s holiday style. If you have room in your suitcase, I recommend packing your most festive sweater and plenty of Christmas spirit - it’s going to be a season to celebrate!
Warm holiday wishes,
Candace
