Hello, Bill, and a very warm welcome to planDisney!
Thank you for trusting us with this great question about the delightful
Christmas Fantasy Parade! Scheduled to return on November 14 this year, the
Holidays at the Disneyland Resort come with so much yuletide magic like the Christmas Fantasy Parade, "it's a small world" Holiday and the
Festive Food Marketplace - my favorite! I love trying all the diverse eats and treats throughout California Adventure. It is a small world after all when you can enjoy bites from around the globe!
Bill, I can understand your desire to plan ahead and maximize the magic during your visit to the Happiest Place on Earth (I'm the same way!), however, the entertainment schedule is not released until about six weeks out. In previous years there have typically been two afternoon showtimes per day for the Christmas Fantasy Parade, but I encourage you to check the
Daily Events Schedule on the Disneyland website as the holidays get a little bit closer to confirm times for this year. Make sure your particular date is selected from the "Change Date" at the top. The Daily Events Schedule not only provides an updated entertainment schedule with parade showtimes, but much more including park hours, attraction closures, and any events that may be occurring during your visit, so I encourage you to check back often. That said, it's important to know that the entertainment schedule can change at any time.
Well, Bill, I hope this information has been helpful! And remember, if any other planning questions come up, anything from how to utilize the
Disneyland app to recommendations on my favorite seasonal treats, please don't hesitate to
reach out again! I can talk Disneyland all day.
From the bottom of my heart, I wish you the most magical visit, Bill!
