We’re singing Christmas carols, dancing in the magical snoap on Main Street, U.S.A., and enjoying the exclusive holiday entertainment at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party!
This specially ticketed event happens on select nights from today, November 8th through December 20th at Magic Kingdom. From 7PM to midnight, Magic Kingdom is turned into a holiday wonderland! We love all the exclusive snacks, entertainment, characters, and complimentary treats of cookies and hot cocoa. But what’s really great about these exclusive events are all the short lines for the rides!
When you go to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, you’ll generally find shorter waits at all the attractions that are open. However, not all the attractions ARE open during the party, so you’ll want to be ready to experience what is available.
Over in Adventureland, you can hop on The Magic Carpets of Aladdin and Pirates of the Caribbean. But back this year, and available during the party, is the Jingle Cruise! We LOVE riding on the holiday-themed cruise.
If you continue onward to Frontierland, you can enjoy Tiana’s Bayou Adventure with a standby line! During the party, this new ride will NOT have a Virtual Queue, so you can hop right in line. You can also ride on the wildest ride in the wilderness — Big Thunder Mountain Railroad — or say hello to the gang at Country Bear Musical Jamboree!
In Liberty Square, you can get a lazy tour of the Haunted Mansion.
Fantasyland offers lots of fun on the Mad Tea Party with its adorable holiday overlay!
Also available to ride in Fantasyland are the following rides:
- Under the Sea ~ Journey of The Little Mermaid
- Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
- Prince Charming Regal Carrousel
- “it’s a small world”
- Peter Pan’s Flight
- The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Storybook Circus offers Dumbo the Flying Elephant and The Barnstormer during the party.
Over in Tomorrowland THREE attractions have fun holiday overlays during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party! On Space Mountain, you’ll soar through space jamming out to some holiday tunes and festive lighting.
On Tomorrowland Speedway, you’ll see lots of holiday decor, lights, and a “futuristic holiday soundtrack” and you cruise the track.
If you want to get some good laughs, we suggest stopping by Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor! You’ll be chucking “ho ho ho” just like Santa by the end of the holiday-themed show.
Other rides open in Tomorrowland during the party are as follows!
- Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin
- Astro Orbiter
- Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover
- TRON Lightcycle / Run
We’re having a blast at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party! We hope you’re ready for a jolly good time when it’s your turn to celebrate the holidays at this exclusive event.
