Disneyland Paris is bringing back its holiday celebration from November 7, 2026, through January 6, 2027, and there's a mix of returning favorites and some new stuff worth knowing about.
Frozen comes to the holidays for the first time
The big new thing is Christmas arriving at World of Frozen in Disney Adventure World. You'll find Nordic-inspired decorations, a centerpiece Christmas tree, and daily 15-minute musical performances led by Olaf. The shows pull songs from Olaf's Frozen Adventure like "Ring in the Season" and "When We're Together," with Anna and Elsa showing up in new winter outfits. Kristoff will also be meeting guests during the holiday season, which is new for this time of year at the park. If you want to grab some Frozen holiday merch, Arendelle Boutique will have a selection of seasonal souvenirs.
Character meetings and park decorations
Santa's moving into his own dedicated spot at Disney Clothiers on Main Street, U.S.A. in Disneyland Park, so you can meet him and share holiday wishes. Across the resort, Mickey and friends will be dressed in winter gear. You'll also find specific character meet-and-greets: Stitch at Videopolis, Jack Skellington at Critter Corral, and Disney Princesses in Central Plaza.
Entertainment and parades
The returning Mickey's Dazzling Christmas Parade features lit floats, Disney Princesses, and Santa, leading into a Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony with a live choir and festive projections. There's also a new musical celebration featuring Minnie Mouse and Mrs. Claus at Sleeping Beauty Castle with original Christmas songs. Videopolis Theatre will host "Let's Sing Christmas!" with Mickey and friends performing classic carols.
Disneyland Hotel and dining
The Disneyland Hotel is leaning into the royal holiday theme with two lobby shows: "The Keeper of Time" and "The Light of Winter." You can get a Nutcracker Mickey ornament in hotel colors, and there's a makeover experience for kids called "My Royal Dream." Holiday dining shows up at Royal Banquet Buffet Restaurant, and Fleur de Lys Bar will have seasonal drinks. All the Disney Hotels will have their own unique holiday decorations.
Food and shopping
Chalets Gourmet locations in both parks will serve seasonal specialties, and restaurants throughout the resort are offering festive dishes. New holiday merchandise includes Christmas ponchos, a Christmas Mickey sweater, and home products, available at La Boutique du Château.
New Year's Eve celebrations
Both parks are doing their own New Year's Eve parties on December 31. At Disney Adventure World, expect drones and fireworks over World of Frozen (weather permitting). At Disneyland Park, Disney Characters will host DJ parties before a special fireworks show at midnight over Sleeping Beauty Castle.
