Hi Nathan! Wow! You’ve planned the best Christmas Eve gift for your two kids. I can’t think of a better way to wait for Santa than being at the Walt Disney World Resort!
I have good news for you! Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas Parade and Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks Show are exclusive to
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party which is held at Magic Kingdom Park. The party is held on select nights from November 8 through December 20, 2024. But then something magical happens after the final Christmas party! The entertainment that is exclusive to party nights becomes the entertainment during regular operating hours. This will be in time for your visit!
At the present time, the times haven’t been released for the entertainment for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, or New Year’s Day. The best places to find the times will be on your My Disney Experience app, the Walt Disney World Resort website, and on your in-room resort TV.
In addition to Christmas and New Year’s Eve entertainment at Magic Kingdom Park. You can also find special entertainment at EPCOT during the holiday season. You might want to visit the
EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays! The special holiday event includes the Candlelight Processional which is a retelling of the story of Christmas by a celebrity narrator accompanied by an orchestra and choir. It’s one of the most inspiring events of the year at the Walt Disney World Resort.
I also recommend visiting the
Christmas Tree Stroll at Disney Springs! Here you will find Christmas trees decorated and themed to your favorite Disney characters, movies, attractions, and more! This is one of my family's favorite activities during the holiday season!
Nathan, have a merry visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth during the most wonderful time of the year!
Dreams do come true!
