The happiest time of the year has come to the happiest place on Earth! The holiday season at Disneyland park has begun, and we’ve compiled a full guide to everything holly, jolly, and more.
Decorations for the Holiday Season at Disneyland
Sleeping Beauty Castle is covered in snow and glimmering icicles, while the rest of the park is adorned with themed decór. There are classic wreaths and garlands on Main Street, U.S.A., rustic bandana-patterned ribbons in Frontierland, and more.
Entertainment
Believe… in Holiday Magic Fireworks
“Believe… in Holiday Magic” is a nighttime fireworks show at Disneyland for the holiday season. The show, which runs through January 8, 2023, is a pyrotechnical spectacle. The sky overhead Sleeping Beauty Castle lights up with a colorful display of fireworks.
Magical Snowfall
Guests can catch the “Magical Snowfall” at Sleeping Beauty Castle and on Main Street, U.S.A. nightly at Disneyland Park. The show incorporates wintry projections and “snoap” (the “snow” actually made of soap used at Disney Parks that don’t get real snow).
A Christmas Fantasy Parade
A Christmas Fantasy Parade has returned for twice-daily performances. The parade will be performed daily at 3:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., except for Christmas week, when performances will be at 2:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m.
Wintertime Enchantment
In this nightly show, the icicle lights and decorations on Sleeping Beauty Castle are illuminated while holiday music plays. Guests wearing a MagicBand+ will see their band interact with the show by glowing different colors at opportune moments.
