Halfway to the Holidays

There is nothing quite like the Disney Parks at Christmas and Disney loves it so much that they celebrate it twice a year. Guests can enjoy special offerings Halfway to Halloween and also Halfway to Christmas.

These “Halfway” celebrations bring great fun to the parks with special treats, activities, and merchandise. These celebrations also bring BIG announcements as well. Last month, Disney celebrated Halfway to Halloween and we received dates and ticket prices for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, information for Disney’s Oogie Boogie Bash, and a fun addition coming to the Haunted Mansion.

We now have a timeline for when Halfway to the Holidays will begin. One of the most delicious holiday treats can be found at Disneyland. Walt Disney World may have multiple gorgeous gingerbread displays, but no gingerbread tastes quite the same as the gingerbread cookies at Disneyland.

We noticed on the Mobile Order app that the Mickey Gingerbread cookie will be available to purchase starting on June 13-15th at the Pacific Wharf Cafe. This alone is great news for Disneyland guests, but this is even better news for all Disney fans.

BIG News Coming Soon

If this is the start of Halfway to the Holidays celebrations in the Disney Parks then this means that we can expect to hear BIG news for dates and pricing for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.

We are also very hopeful for the return of the Cinderella Dream Lights illuminating Cinderella Castle at the Magic Kingdom. This may also include news for nighttime spectaculars, resort holiday offerings, new merchandise, and attractions to be featured with holiday overlays.

Halfway to the Holidays will bring BIG news for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party along with great entertainment and merchandise news for the Disney Parks.

We may have the air conditioning blasting, but we are ready for all the exciting news to prepare for our holiday plans at the Disney Parks this year.
