Overview
- Disneyland Resort confirmed on Wednesday that the 2026 holiday season will run Nov. 13, 2026 through Jan. 6, 2027 and released a full schedule covering both parks, resort hotels, and Downtown Disney.
- Mickey, Minnie and several character friends will debut brand-new holiday outfits in Town Square that lean on a winter travel and alpine-gathering theme.
- Santa’s traditional Fantasyland Theatre meet-and-greet has been moved to Mickey’s Toontown Trolley Barn, a change driven by the Fantasyland Theatre hosting the Bluey show during the season.
- Fan-favorite overlays and shows are returning, including A Christmas Fantasy Parade, Believe...In Holiday Magic fireworks, Haunted Mansion Holiday (with its 25th gingerbread anniversary), it’s a small world Holiday, and World of Color – Season of Light.
- The resort teased guest-facing offerings that affect planning: the Disney Festival of Holidays with six marketplaces and a Sip and Savor Pass, hotel holiday décor and dining events, a limited hotel discount that opens for booking Sept. 22, and separate paid tour and dining package windows to be posted later; one outlet’s Nov. 12 start-date for the season differs from the resort’s published Nov. 13 date.
