The Disneyland Resort will once again transform into a merry and magical place as Guests return to enjoy their holiday season here, Nov. 12, 2021. Guests will have three more days to celebrate the Holidays, too, because we’re extending it through Jan. 9, 2022. As Guests visit to make new memories this year, many beloved traditions are back that will provide them with cheerful entertainment, yuletide treats, specialty merchandise, sparkling décor and seasonal transformations of select attractions!
At Disneyland Park
At Disneyland park, nostalgic holiday magic shines brightly with the glistening Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle and a 60-foot Christmas tree on Main Street, U.S.A. Both make wonderful photo locations for that cherished memory of a Holiday visit.
Entertainment making a comeback this year at the park includes “A Christmas Fantasy” parade where beloved Disney characters join Santa Claus for a merry musical celebration down Main Street, U.S.A. Guests may also see Santa making other stops within the parks throughout their visit.
For the perfect kiss goodnight Guests will be treated to “Believe … in Holiday Magic” fireworks spectacular and magical snowfall over portions of Main Street, U.S.A. Additionally, seasonal transformations will happen once again at “it’s a small world” Holiday and the 20th installation of Haunted Mansion Holiday.
At Disney California Adventure Park
At Disney California Adventure park, Guests can create new memories during Festival of Holidays and discover the sights, sounds and tastes of a diverse season of celebrations during this festive time of year, including Christmas/Navidad, Diwali, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Three Kings Day. Friends and families are invited to celebrate with “Disney ¡Viva Navidad!” as Disney characters host a fun street party featuring Mexican folklórico dancers and Mariachis, Brazilian samba dancers and percussionists, giant mojiganga puppets and Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse in their fiesta best!
At Paradise Gardens, Guests will enjoy festively themed food and beverages, live music and dance, and later in the Holiday season Mirabel from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ upcoming film ‘Encanto’ will make her park debut. Stay tuned for information on Mirabel’s introduction.
Over in Cars Land, the four-wheeled residents will be pulling out all the stops with their holiday décor. From the snow-covered billboard at the entrance all the way to the hubcap-studded tree at the courthouse, Guests will see automotive ornamentation at its finest along Route 66. And for a little more festive magic two popular attractions will transform into Luigi’s Joy to the Whirl and Mater’s Jingle Jamboree.
More Merry-Making
Also around the Resort, traditional holiday décor and carolers bring the holiday spirit to the Downtown Disney District and the Hotels of the Disneyland Resort. Over at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, Guests will want to discover all the fun new details on the giant gingerbread house this year.
