Disney Park Entertainment
One thing that sets Disney Parks apart from other theme parks is the great entertainment options delighting guests throughout the day.
From multiple stage shows, awe-inspiring fireworks, cavalcades, and of course, the Festival of Fantasy Parade. Guests have so much to enjoy apart from the thrilling attractions.
Disney reserves the right to make changes to operational hours as needed.
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party returns on November 9, 2026, and runs through December 22, 2026. At this special ticketed event, you will have special access to exclusive offerings.
This includes festive entertainment such as Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas Parade, holiday overlays on classic rides, a storybook holiday atmosphere, and sweet treats. You can also meet a host of characters and Santa Claus!
Winnie the Pooh Changing
One of the most popular meet-and-greets at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party is to meet Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, and Piglet dressed in fun, festive scarves.
Typically, these characters greeted Guests at the traditional location at the Thotful Spot. This year, during Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, all 4 characters will move inside Storybook Circus.
Winnie the Pooh and his pals move to Storybook Circus for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party nights.
We hope this change will help the line move more quickly. Winnie the Pooh and Tigger will continue to greet Guests at the Thotful Spot during normal Magic Kingdom park hours.
