For many, a visit to Walt Disney World during the Holiday Season would not be complete without seeing the Candlelight Processional.

Have a Holly Jolly Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party

Held at the Magic Kingdom on select nights through December 22, this is a festive and fun way to celebrate the holidays.

A “hard ticket” event, MVMCP is not included as part of regular park ticket admission however, so if you want to attend, you will need to pay extra. Read more
