Happy New Year! I know I'm early, Jacob. But is it ever really too early to prepare? I think not! And I think you agree, which is why you've come to us here at planDisney. So, welcome!
I cannot...I repeat...I
cannot think of a better way to kick off the new year than to visit the
Walt Disney World Resort. What better way to set a
joyous, celebratory tone for the new year than to visit the Most Magic Place on Earth on the first day of 2025? The
holiday decorations will likely still be up, those delicious holiday treats may still be available, and the promise of
a great, big, beautiful tomorrow will definitely be shining at the end of this day!
While historically, the big celebrations for the New Year's holiday take place on New Year's Eve, we won't officially know if any big celebrations are going to take place on New Year's Day until more details are released by the
Disney Parks Blog. So make sure you're following along leading up to your trip!
And remember, you're at the
Walt Disney World Resort. It's the home of all things celebratory. Try to arrive early on this day so that you can take advantage of the
2025 free water park perk on your check-in day if you are staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel! Indulge in a
tasty treat. Ride the latest and greatest
attractions like
Tiana's Bayou Adventure in
Magic Kingdom Park. Cheer to the new year at one of my favorites:
La Cava del Tequila in
EPCOT. Buy yourself a 2025 souvenir to commemorate this trip and serve as a reminder of the amazing start to the year!
And, of course,
make a wish. It could be in front of
Cinderella Castle. It could be walking around the trails by the
Tree of Life. Maybe as you're sauntering up to
Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway. Or perhaps while exploring the countries around the World Showcase in EPCOT. But no matter where it is, make that wish. And since
Princess Tiana reminds us that the only way to get what you want in this world is through hard work, make that resolution, too. And if you ever lose your way, hold that souvenir and remember the hope that filled your heart on the first day of 2025 at a place full of wonder and magic.
You're almost there,
Matt
