There are SO many great Disney bags out there, so when it comes to buying the right one, which should you choose? Should you buy it based on cuteness? How about durability? Or you could buy it based on style, whether that’s a crossbody or a backpack. What if I told you there’s one that fits all of those categories?

Pretty much from the moment the calendar flips to November, Disney World shifts into full Christmas mode. Pumpkins, cobwebs, and the like are replaced (in some places literally) overnight with holiday favorites and Christmas Trees, and the resort’s major Christmas party events launch in early November.

We all know that Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party has some of the best entertainment across Disney World. From the Toy Soldiers clomping down Main Street, U.S.A., to the fireworks over the castle, we often think a ticket to the party is worth the money just for the entertainment, but did you know you can catch some of it without paying for a ticket?
Parade time
Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade runs during the day, so if you’ve been wanting to catch the spectacular parade, you can do it with your normal Magic Kingdom park ticket. The best part? You might even be part of a filming!
