Nancy Christmas Holidays, What to Do at Disney World , , , , 0 Comment

The first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party (or MVMCP) of the year is tonight, ringing in the Disney Holiday Season. Held at the Magic Kingdom on select nights through December 22, this is a festive and fun way to celebrate the holidays. With the chance to see magical fireworks, a parade and live shows, plus carolers, special characters, “snow” on Main Street and all the cookies and hot chocolate you want, it’s easy to see why this is a great way to get into the holiday spirit. 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

Other than Halloween at Disney World, very few things in life are as wonderful as Christmas in Disney World. I will even relent and say for many families, the holiday season in the World is probably the absolute most magical experience. In a place where the air is already filled with magic and happiness, and wonderful things happen all the time, adding Christmas to it just puts it over the top. There are countless fabulous things to do during the holidays in the World to give you the warmth in your heart, but the centerpiece for many joyful celebrations is the Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, and within that, is the Once Upon a Christmastime Parade. The parades of Disney World are fairly legendary as it is, and there is something truly spectacular about the special holiday parade. Full of sparkles, scents, and snow, you can’t help but get a little jolly watching this parade. Read more

Of course, if it’s the Holidays, then it’s pretty much guaranteed that there will be treats….and even more guaranteed that Disney will be in overdrive when it comes to those treats.

With that in mind, I present: Holiday desserts at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party: Read more
