Christmas in Magic Kingdom
Get ready to see Disney World decked out with twinkling lights, nostalgic snacks, and one-of-a-kind entertainment because it’s almost Christmas time in the Sunshine State.
The holiday season at Disney World will run from November 14th to December 31st in 2025.
Each park goes all out with beautiful decorations, massive Christmas trees, and exclusive treats, making it one of our favorite times of the year. Even some resorts get in on the fun!
