It’s beginning to feel a lot like Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party – and that’s because it’s almost here! In just a few short weeks, from Nov. 8 through Dec. 20, 2024, Magic Kingdom Park will be transformed into a winter wonderland for this beloved holiday event. Filled with festive bites and holiday festivities, this year’s party will leave guests feeling holly and jolly!
As the sun goes down, guests can get ready to be in the spirit of the season with the return of the nighttime extravaganza, Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks Show, the fan-favorite Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, and, of course, plenty of character greetings all throughout the park. We can’t forget the Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party staple – all the cookies and cocoa guests can fit in their stocking.
This year, taste buds are about to be in a winter wonderland (of flavor). With over 30 new items, like the Gingerbread Milk Shake, Festive Beignets, and Lasagna Flatbread, and returning favorites, including Candy Cane Tart and Christmas Cookie Cake Roll, the culinary teams have definitely earned their spots on the nice list with this yuletide selection of treats.
Guests should get ready to make their treats list and check it twice, because the Foodie Guide to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is here. And we can’t wait to unwrap it all.
