What this guide covers

Tickets and early admission

Review the separate party ticket, the early-entry period and the distinction between regular park hours and ticketed Christmas party hours.

Holiday parade, fireworks and characters

Prioritize Mickey's Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, Minnie's Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks, holiday shows and special character greetings.

Build your party-night timeline

Plan daytime rides and dinner before the party, then schedule the parade, shows, cookies and cocoa, character visits and late-night rides.

This is a seasonal hard-ticket event. Dates, times, entertainment and prices vary; confirm details with Disney before booking.
