food IS a theme park
There is SO much holiday fun at Disney World, and we’re adding even more. You might have heard of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party or Jollywood Nights, but don’t sleep on the Disney World resorts for more holiday magic.
Swan and Dolphin
The Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resort is bringing tons of holiday events to the resort, making this one of the best resorts to stay in if you want Christmas overload at every corner.
Thanksgiving is coming up soon, and if you’re not spending it at Disney World, then you may be spending it at a family member’s house, a friend’s house, or at home.
ALDI!
However, it’s no secret that groceries for such a meal are not getting any cheaper, but if you’re looking to save TONS of money on Thanksgiving food, you need to go to ALDI. Why? ALDI is offering a full Thanksgiving meal for up to 10 people for just $40 — that’s just $4 per person.
The holidays can be an especially wonderful time to visit Disney World, so we don’t blame you if you’re thinking about planning a trip!
Hollywood Studios Christmas tree
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party brings special eats and entertainment to Magic Kingdom, while the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays boasts cultural traditions and more. And of course, we can’t help but love all the holiday decor throughout the parks, too. If you’re heading to the parks during Thanksgiving week, you can find the traditional Turkey Day meal in a few different places.

Happy Thanksgiving
It might seem like Disney skipped right over Thanksgiving and jumped straight into the festive season (and we won’t lie — they kinda did. Have you seen all those Christmas trees?), but we actually found a few Thanksgiving treats in the parks and at Disney Springs. And you could even get a full Thanksgiving feast at a few different restaurants on the holiday! You might be surprised by the restaurant we chose for our Thanksgiving feast (considering that it’s an Italian restaurant), but by the end of our meal we were convinced — Italians do Thanksgiving RIGHT.
