We’re just a few short days away from the start of the holiday season in Disney World with the beginning of the resort’s two holiday parties — Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights.
If you’re a Disney Vacation Club member, there are very specific dates you’ll want to head over to Disney’s Hollywood Studios to grab an extra special treat. Don’t worry, we’ve got the dates for you, but as a warning — it’s only happening SIX times throughout the next two months!
Jollywood Nights this year takes place on select nights from November 7th, 2026 to January 5th, 2027, and every night, you can meet over 20 different characters (many of them rare), try exclusive holiday treats, and ride some of your favorite attractions with little to no waits, but there’s an added bonus for Disney Vacation Club members.
On six party nights, DVC members can stop by Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After to enjoy free hot chocolate and pick up a free Disney Vacation Club holiday keepsake! This perk is only available for members attending on November 16th, November 23rd, December 7th, December 14th, and 21st.
If you’re a DVC member who’s visiting the party on another date, unfortunately, this perk won’t be available. If you haven’t gotten your tickets yet, most dates still have availability, with the exception of November 7th and November 14th, the first two dates of the season. DVC members and Annual Passholders are able to get a discount on tickets, so don’t forget to make sure you’re signed into your account before you purchase your tickets.
Not sure what Disney Vacation Club is? Many guests think of the DVC as Disney’s version of a timeshare. But uniquely, Members are not “locked in” to a particular Disney destination, resort, style of accommodation, season of travel, or length of stay. Instead, Members utilize a Vacation Points system, offering more flexibility to choose where they’d like to go. Disney Vacation Club Members receive a yearly allotment of Vacation Points based on “the size of the real estate interest” of their “Home” Disney Vacation Club Resort, and then Members may use their Vacation Points to book their vacations.
