November is going to be a huge month for Disney fans, and you should start loading up your calendar NOW.

Cinderella Castle

In the past few days, it’s like Disney has announced important date after important date, and our November schedule is filling up rather rapidly. If you want to be in the know but need someone to keep track of all those recent announcements for you…don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!

Now, there are plenty of things happening in November for Disney fans that we’ve known about for months, but we’re here to chat about those that were newly-announced. Starting off the list, we got updates recently about many of Disney World’s holiday ride overlays! The first one coming? Jingle Cruise will be open at Magic Kingdom starting on November 3rd. This is the ridiculously punny and enchantingly festive overlay at Jungle Cruise.

Then, on November 4th, both Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets and Alien Swirling Saucers start their holiday overlays. These two rides will have special soundtracks for the season, and you’ll have to ride multiple times if you want to hear ALL the festive tunes.

Then, yet ANOTHER ride gets an overlay starting on November 25th. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is getting its Holiday Remix. This is the second time we’ve seen this ride have a holiday overlay, but the first time a few years ago, there was only one song option. This year, there are three:

• “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” by Andy Williams
• “Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24” by Trans-Siberian Orchestra 8
• “Christmas Wrapping” by The Waitresses

And in non-ride news, Disney just announced that November 17th will be its fourth quarter and fiscal full year 2026 earnings call. You can tune in starting at 8:30 AM ET or 5:30 AM PT to hear the Disney execs discuss the results, and the financial report will be released before the call begins. We watch all the earnings calls not only to get the latest business information from The Walt Disney Company, but also, because Disney often makes forward-looking announcements during the call. We’ll recap all the news for you, so be sure to check out our blog on that Tuesday!

Those are the dates that were announced in the past few days, but of course, that’s not ALL that’s happening in November! You can prepare for the opening nights of Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios on November 7th and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom on November 8th. Then, the holidays officially kick off in Disney World on November 13th.

Magic Kingdom during the holidays

The EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival ends on November 21st, to be replaced by the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays on November 27th. With that festival and all the holiday treats across the parks and resorts, we’re going to be doing a LOT of eating in the month of November.
