From Nov. 25 through Dec. 30, you can enjoy holidays around the world with this classic festival.  

With over 15 Holiday Kitchens, you’ll find flavors from across the globe highlighting ways the world celebrates the season. This year, you can discover a new Holiday Kitchen, Nochebuena Cocina with an IMPOSSIBLE Chorizo Tamale, as well as indulge in returning favorites, like Potato Latkes from L’Chaim! Holiday Kitchen or Cheese Fondue in a Bread Bowl from Bavaria Holiday Kitchen. 

If you’re looking to indulge your sweet tooth, you simply must do the Holiday Cookie Stroll. Collect stamps in your Festival Passport by purchasing five of these items to redeem a special treat from Holiday Sweets & Treats.

In addition to the food, a staple of the festival is the entertainment. As you travel throughout the World Showcase, be sure to take the time to listen to the holiday storytellers sharing each country’s holiday traditions. Listen to the joy of Christmas and Kwanzaa with the lively JOYFUL! A Celebration of the Season or grab the whole family for some holiday searching with Olaf’s Holiday Tradition Expedition Scavenger Hunt.

As the sun goes down, you can’t miss Candlelight Processional – a moving retelling of the story of Christmas featuring a celebrity narrator and stirring songs performed by an orchestra and choir.

We now have the full list of food and drinks coming for this amazing festival! Be sure to use Character Locator to add these menu items into your touring strategy!
