Happy Halfway to the Holidays


It's officially halfway to the holidays! That means there are many fun and exciting announcements for the upcoming holiday season at Walt Disney World.


Disney Jollywood Nights

Disney Jollywood Nights will be making a return this year! Don your holiday-meets-Hollywood best and attend this red carpet event in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This separately ticketed festive event takes place on select nights from November 9, 2024, through December 21, 2024, from 7:30 PM to 12:30 AM. This event will be introducing a brand-new special show that is a twist on a traditional ice show set to holiday tunes. The crowd favorite show from last year, What’s This? Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along, will thankfully be making its return this year. This event is the perfect opportunity to experience exclusive characters such as Phineas and Ferb, Santa Duffy, and Santa Stitch. With last year being the first year of the event, the only available merchandise was a t-shirt. This year, we are excited that Ollie, the most dapper gingerbread man, will be receiving his own exclusive line of merchandise for the event, including ears and apparel. While last year guests received commemorative coasters for attending the event, this year all guests will receive a sweet treat created by Wondermade! Guests with a confirmed resort reservation will be able to purchase tickets to this incredible event on July 2, 2024, while guests not staying at a Disney Resort will be able to purchase tickets on July 10.

EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays

The holidays are celebrated all around the world in different ways through different traditions. Beginning November 29 and running through December 30, EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays allows guests to experience the sights, sounds, and flavors of the holidays around the world. Throughout the World Showcase, guests can interact with storytellers who share their country's unique cultural traditions throughout the holiday season. Around the World Showcase, Holiday Kitchens will boast the flavors of the holidays along with a holiday cookie trail. One of the main draws to EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays is the Candlelight Processional, where celebrity narrators tell the Christmas story accompanied by a full orchestra and choir. While this is one of the shortest festivals of the year at EPCOT, it by far offers the most entertainment.
