Christmas at Walt Disney World Checklist

Christmas at Walt Disney World Checklist

Need a Disney Christmas Checklist for your Disney Vacation? We have been collecting everything we can to prepare for a Christmas Vacation to the most magical place on Earth. Snow on Main Street? Cocoa and Cookies? Jingle Cruise? You bet! For our shop, we started designing Disney Christmas shirts in July so we’ve been in holiday mode for a while. But, when it comes to Christmas at Walt Disney World we’ve made a list. This Walt Disney World Christmas Checklist covers all four parks, Disney Springs and the Resorts, so we don’t miss a thing! Because with so many holiday activities, you’re sure to want to experience them all! 

Walt Disney World Christmas

Disney World at Christmas Time

First things first. If you, dear reader, have anything to share- tips, tricks, words of caution about Disney at Christmas- let us know! We are always looking for great tips about making the holidays more magical! As avid Disney Vacationers and current Annual Passholders, we have stashed loads of Disney tips and tricks in our Disney Vacation toolbox. But, Christmas at Walt Disney World isn’t an annual trip for us, because we’re usually avoiding the crowds ( which are the worst through the holiday season) and have loads of family holiday fun at home to enjoy. Still, we simply can’t get enough of all the magic in the Walt Disney World Parks for Christmas. Here’s what you can find in each area of the resort through the holidays. 

Christmas at MAGIC KINGDOM

With the cancellation of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, comes an alternative- Disney’s Very Merriest After Hours Event. While not the same family-friendly Christmas event, this still promises to be loads of fun. Because we can always count on Magic Kingdom to have a few Merry and Bright things to keep the holiday spirits up.
