Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party Entertainment

If you’re planning to go to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, don’t miss out on the exclusive entertainment that’s only available during the event. Of course, you can still ride attractions and enjoy the festive atmosphere, but you won’t want to miss out on the extra special experiences!

Mickey’s Most Merriest Celebration is a yuletide stage show starring the one and only Mickey Mouse. This spectacular performance features incredible dancers and singers jamming to holiday songs alongside Disney characters. There are four shows at 7:40 pm, 9:25 pm, 10:35 pm, and 11:55 pm. Make sure to watch at least one. 

Experience the ultimate holiday extravaganza with Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmastime Parade. Watch in awe as beloved Disney characters, Saint Nick, and more ride by on Christmas-themed floats decked out with festive decorations. The parade takes place twice a night, at 8:30 pm and 11 pm, and winds its way through Frontierland, Liberty Square, and Main Street, U.S.A. So be sure to grab a spot early to enjoy this magical parade.

Disney is known for its fireworks displays, and Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks is no exception. Hosted by Minnie Mouse herself, this spectacular show illuminates the night sky at 10 pm.

Want to get your groove on? Head to Tomorrowland for the Club Tinsel or Disney Junior Jingle Jam dance party. At Club Tinsel, you can dance the night away with holiday friends such as Santa’s elves and polar bears. Or, at Disney Junior Jingle Jam, you can bust a move with popular characters such as Fancy Nancy, Vampirina, Doc McStuffins, and The Lion Guard. The parties start at 7 pm and go until midnight.
