The annual Christmas tree has arrived at Magic Kingdom, along with other holiday decorations in Town Square and Main Street, U.S.A. stores.
Christmas Tree
The Christmas tree towers over all the buildings around it. It’s stationed right behind the flag pole in Town Square.
PhotoPass photographers are usually stationed at the base of the tree, which is surrounded by giant presents. Photographers on Main Street will also turn around to take guest photos with the tree behind them.
The tree is decorated with popcorn garland, bells, toys, and classic baubles.
It’s topped with a star.
Colorful lights are also strung through it.
Other Christmas Decorations
In the planters around the Christmas tree are life-size toy soldiers and candy cane pillars.
Large wreaths have been installed on arms attached to the Main Street façades.
Garlands were hung from the buildings earlier this week.
These wreaths have candles in their centers. Pairs of bells hang from the ends of the arms.
Inside the Main Street Cinema are a few light-up adornments.
This bundle has retro ornaments, flowers, and a glittering bow with an image of Santa Claus in the center.
Garlands with tassels line the tops of displays in Uptown Jewelers.
And more garland hangs from the ceiling in the center of the shop.
All of the Emporium windows now display Christmas merchandise.
This one includes a Christmas tree with “Toy Story” toys around it.
Garlands hang inside the shop and there are small trees on merch displays.
There are also light-up garlands in Disney Clothiers next door.
