Hello there, Darryl!
Welcome to planDisney and thanks for stopping by with your question! I don't know about you, but I always get nostalgic towards the end of the year when the
Holiday Season starts. There's nothing like spending that time of year with family and friends in a festive location and I can't imagine a better place than the Disneyland Resort! The Cast Members do such a wonderful job of decorating the Parks for the Season that it's actually a
year-round preparation.
The
Disney Parks Blog announced that the official beginning of the Holiday Season at the Disneyland Resort will be November 10, 2023. At this time, there have been no announcements on separately ticketed events for that time of year. Disneyland held a special Disneyland After Dark Party called
Merriest Nites in 2021 but that event has
not returned in the following years. That means that you are free to visit at any time, including Christmas Day (subject to reservation availability)!
There's still plenty to do and see at the Disneyland Resort without a special Holiday Party! The
Festive Foods Marketplace will offer a variety of tasty holiday themed foods for your taste buds while the
Viva Navidad Street party will have you celebrating multicultural holiday traditions.
A Christmas Fantasy Parade is always a perennial favorite among guests and you'll be humming along afterwards!
I hope that answers your question, Darryl. I recommend that you make your reservations as soon as possible if you haven't already because Christmas can be one of the busier times of the year. If you need any further help with planning your trip, please write back to us anytime! You're always welcome at planDisney!
Wishing You a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow!
