Hello there Kristin and fellow Illinois resident! It is never too early to start talking Halloween and Holidays at the Disneyland Resort in my opinion!
Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort will run from September 1 to October 31, 2023. We do not have the official dates for the Holiday celebration just yet, but the dates last year were from November 11, 2022 to January 8, 2023. I'd imagine that this year will be similar, so I'd estimate that
Holidays at the Disneyland Resort should return around November 10. I would recommend keeping an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for the official announcement of the transformation to the "Merriest Place on Earth!"
If you're thinking of visiting during either of those festive times Kristin, you will not want to miss the
Haunted Mansion Holiday attraction in
Disneyland Park. The classic Haunted Mansion attraction receives a frightfully festive makeover inspired by Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. It is one of my family's favorite attractions since we love the movie, and you may even spot Jack Skellington and Sally roaming through New Orleans Square!
I hope this information is helpful for your trip planning Kristin, and if you think of any other questions,
please do not hesitate to ask!
Have a magical day!
Melissa
