🎄✨ MICKEY’S VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS PARTY IS BACK — and so are so many of our favorites! ✨🎄
If spending an evening in Magic Kingdom surrounded by Christmas lights, holiday music, “snow” falling on Main Street, U.S.A. and ALL the festive Disney magic sounds like your kind of Christmas… this one is for you! ❤️💚
Here’s what Disney has confirmed is returning to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party in 2026: 🎅🏻🏰
🎆 Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks
A gorgeous nighttime spectacular filled with fireworks, projections, special effects and Christmas music!
🎄 Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade
Mickey, Minnie, Disney friends, toy soldiers, gingerbread men and, of course… SANTA! 🎅🏻
🎶 Mickey’s Most Merriest Celebration
Mickey and friends take over the Cinderella Castle stage for a festive show packed with singing, dancing and holiday favorites.
❄️ Frozen Holiday Surprise
Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff and friends bring some Frozen magic to Cinderella Castle — ending with Elsa transforming the castle into a sparkling holiday spectacle!
☃️ SNOW on Main Street, U.S.A.!
Yes, there’s just something extra magical about walking toward Cinderella Castle while “snow” falls around you. 🥹✨
💃 Holiday Dance Parties
🎄 Club Tinsel in Tomorrowland
🎄 Disney Junior Jingle Jam with Disney Junior friends
🎅🏻 Disney Characters in their holiday best
Plus, the party is known for appearances from some characters you don’t normally get to meet during a regular park day!
🎢 HOLIDAY RIDE OVERLAYS!
Several attractions get extra festive just for the party, including:
🚀 Space Mountain — Holiday Run
🏎️ Tomorrowland Speedway Race Through the Holidays
😂 Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor holiday fun
🫖 Mad Tea Party holiday overlay
🛶 Jingle Cruise — the Christmas version of Jungle Cruise!
And plenty of Magic Kingdom favorites are scheduled to be open, including TRON Lightcycle / Run, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, Peter Pan’s Flight and more!
🍪☕ FREE COOKIES & HOLIDAY DRINKS!
Stop by designated treat locations throughout the park for complimentary cookies and drinks like hot cocoa and apple c***r. One of my favorite MVMCP traditions! ❤️
🛍️ Exclusive party merchandise
🍭 Exclusive holiday food & drinks available for purchase throughout the party — with this year’s menus still to come!
And remember: Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is a separately ticketed event, which means you do NOT need a regular Magic Kingdom park ticket to attend the party. Party guests can traditionally enter Magic Kingdom beginning at 4 PM, with the party running 7 PM–midnight! 🎄
🎟️ 2026 MVMCP TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE NOW!
Some party nights can and DO sell out, so if Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is on your Christmas wish list, don’t wait until the last minute! 🎅🏻
