Walt Disney World is gearing up for the 2025 holiday season, and they have released initial details for the Magic Kingdom holiday season. The park will, once again, play host to the Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, along with festive decor, a special holiday overlay, and more. Here’s a rundown of what guests can expect to find at Magic Kingdom during the 2025 holiday season!
2025 Magic Kingdom Holiday Season
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party will return this holiday season to Magic Kingdom! The party begins November 7th, running through December 21st on select nights. While the party ends before Christmas Week begins, guests will very likely be able to experience many of the party elements during the Christmas Week after the party officially concludes. More on that at a later date.

Jingle Cruise Holiday Overlay
The world-famous Jingle Cruise returns in 2025 for a festive-yet-familiar adventure, as a trusty skipper expertly navigates guests through some of the world’s most treacherous waters. Guests may hear and see plenty of holiday-themed gags along their 10-minute, 10,000-mile journey that goes on for Niles and Niles and Niles, so make sure to keep a close ear as your skipper guides you through the jungle with a boat full of pun-filled fun.
Yet the fun starts as soon as guests enter the queue. Before boarding your canopied tramp steamer, you’ll see that the skippers have also decorated the loading area with plenty of lights, sights and sounds for the holidays. Look out for some hidden details throughout your wait time — you never know what you’ll discover next about the shenanigans happening each day at the Jungle Navigation Company.

Frozen Holiday Surprise
I guess it’s not really a surprise if it’s being announced, but the Frozen Holiday Surprise Cinderella Castle moment will return for the 2025 holiday season.
Guests can join “Frozen” friends from Arendelle as Olaf and over 100 of his snowgie siblings add garlands, ornaments, wreaths and more to Cinderella Castle during the “Frozen Holiday Surprise.”
With appearances from Anna, Kristoff and a magical moment from Elsa as she transforms Cinderella Castle into a shimmering crystallized palace, this show is a dazzling nighttime experience that guests won’t want to miss.
Holiday Decor Around the Park
Magic Kingdom is home to some of the most iconic holiday picture spots across Walt Disney World, with plenty of beautiful areas to snap a photo worthy of a Christmas card.
With jolly holiday trimmings and touches along Main Street, U.S.A. and throughout the park, guests can smile, snap and share their perfect photos along a bright and merry Main Street and at other iconic Disney World locations such as Cinderella Castle, TRON Lightcycle / Run presented by Enterprise, Space Mountain and Haunted Mansion throughout their multi-day vacation.
