    Hiya, Heather!

    I'm absolutely thrilled to welcome you back to planDisney! Seeing returning Guests like you truly makes our day, because it means you're not only continuing your magical planning journey, but you also trust us to help guide you along the way. It's always such a treat to reconnect, answer new questions, and share in the excitement of what's ahead for your Disney vacation. It means we get to share even more magic together!

    First of all, how incredibly exciting that you were able to snag a ticket to Disney's Jollywood Nights! I have to admit, I'm just a little bit jealous because I haven't had the chance to experience this dazzling evening of holiday glitz and glam quite yet. But believe me, it's right at the top of my Disney must-do list. From everything I've heard, it's an unforgettable night filled with festive vibes, sparkling entertainment, and all the holiday cheer you could dream of!

    Now, to dive into the first part of your question, Jollywood Nights is a 5-hour special ticketed event that runs from 7:30 PM until 12:30 AM. However, ticketholders are welcome to enter Hollywood Studios as early as 5:30 PM on the day of the event. How's that for a pre-party warm-up?! Woohoo!!

    Unfortunately, Lightning Lane passes aren't available during this special event, so you wouldn't be able to purchase them. They're only offered if you're visiting Hollywood Studios during regular theme park hours. Although this might be a Bibbidi Bobbidi bummer, the good news is that most attractions usually have shorter wait times during the event, so you can still enjoy plenty of rides if you'd like!

    In case you haven't seen it yet, the Disney Parks Blog has a fantastic article with all the details about this year's Jollywood Nights. From everything I've seen, it looks like so much fun! 

    Heather, I hope you have the most MAGICAL night ever at Jollywood Nights! If you have any other questions, feel free to drop by again! We're always happy to help!

    See ya real soon,
