Hello Emily and thanks for asking planDisney such a wonderful question!
The
Holidays and Christmastime are my most favourite times of the yEar to visit Walt Disney World Resort. I adore everything from the beautiful seasonal decor to the delightfully cinnamon-scented aromas which seem to tempt me into each and every bakery! It's all just so enticing and, for me, completely unmissable!
Because exact timings of operations to decorate Walt Disney World Resort for the Holidays differ each yEar, it's rather tricky for me to provide a precise date for you Emily of when each Disney Theme Park will be completely Christmas-ready!
As a general rule of thumb, as soon as the Headless Horseman has galloped back to Sleepy Hollow and the last Mickey-shaped pumpkin has been stored away after Halloween... Christmastime arrives at Walt Disney World Resort! It usually takes a few weeks for everywhere on Disney property to be fully prepared for Santa's arrival, so as a guesstimate - by mid-to-late November Guests can expect each Disney Theme Park to be in full seasonal swing with lots of twinkling lights, hanging garlands, and candy canes galore.
A top tip would be to keep an Ear on the
Disney Parks Blog for all Disney-related news and updates including the Holidays at Walt Disney World Resort. I particularly enjoy watching this incredible
Timelapse Video: Watch Walt Disney World Resort Transform for the Holidays from a past Disney Parks Blog article - it's all happens just like Mickey magic!
Emily, I do hope I've been able to offer you a little insight today into when Walt Disney World Resort decorates for the Holidays. If you should have any further questions about visiting Walt Disney World Resort at Christmas, Halloween, or even Easter, please do pop back to
planDisney to ask me another question. I'm always happy to help!
Have a great Disney day ~ Jane
