*The Disneyland Resort has officially begun its holiday season, running from Nov. 14, 2025, through Jan. 7, 2026. This year’s festivities span Disneyland Park, Disney California Adventure Park, Downtown Disney District, and the onsite hotels. Guests can explore seasonal décor, limited-time food, and holiday entertainment, all presented alongside the Disneyland Resort 70th Celebration, per the news release.
At Disneyland Park, visitors will encounter characters dressed for the season, as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and their friends appear in shimmering Holiday outfits with nods to the 70th Celebration. Classic attraction overlays return, including “it’s a small world” Holiday and Haunted Mansion Holiday. Entertainment offerings include “A Christmas Fantasy Parade,” “Believe…in Holiday Magic” fireworks, and “Holiday Fun with Santa and Friends.”
Disney Festival of Holidays brings a wide selection of cultural entertainment to Disney California Adventure Park. Performances feature groups such as Mostly Kosher, Yamila Guerra Cuban Latin Band, Karmagraphy, and others throughout the season. Nearly 30 new culinary creations debut across the Festive Food Marketplaces, alongside offerings like “Mirabel’s Gifts of the Season” and Disney ¡Viva Navidad! in Paradise Gardens.
Holiday experiences also continue outside the parks. Downtown Disney District and the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort feature seasonal additions, including character dining options such as the new Mickey’s Christmas Carol Feast at Storytellers Cafe from Nov. 17, 2025, through Jan. 6, 2026. Guests can enjoy live music at the Downtown Disney LIVE! Stage and Lawn, nightly “snow” in the district, and holiday shopping with limited-time merchandise, specialty food and drinks, and visits from Santa.
