Starting November 9th, 2024 until January 6, 2025 Disneyland Paris will host their annual Disney Enchanted Christmas. The destination will don its winter coat, bringing out dazzling decorations, greetings with Santa and iconic Disney characters in festive fashions, as well as enchanting shows including the renamed Mickey's Dazzling Christmas Parade. This fairytale atmosphere will extend into the parks, stores, restaurants and even the Disney Hotels, especially Disneyland Hotel, which will dress up in the gentlest Yuletide colors to offer kids and grown-ups a royal dream. What's more, all guests to Disneyland Paris will have the unique opportunity to greet the new year in a magical, festive setting on December 31, 2024.
On the way in to Disneyland Park, a majestic 24-meter-high Christmas tree towers over Main Street, U.S.A., adorned by almost 1,000 Christmas ornaments. This central avenue, where snow will fall several times a day, will shine dazzlingly bright, leading guests as far as Sleeping Beauty Castle. Once a day in the Castle Courtyard, children and grown-ups will be able to greet Aurora and her Prince Philip from Disney Animation's "Sleeping Beauty", present from November 16, before heading off to meet other beloved Disney characters such as Chip ‘n' Dale or Winnie the Pooh. Some of these characters – like Stitch, Goofy and Jack Skellington – will even dare to dress up like Santa! And he will most definitely be at Disneyland Paris, listening to last-minute Christmas gift wishes before embarking on his yearly long-haul journey.
"Let's Sing Christmas" staged in Videopolis Theatre and featuring Mickey, Minnie and their friends – an opportunity to come and sing traditional Christmas carols such as Little Santa Claus or Jingle Bells, with lyrics displayed in real-time on-screen. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy and Goofy will be joined this year by a new friend, to kindle a festive Christmas spirit in a cheerfully warm-hearted atmosphere.
From November 16, Aurora, Cinderella, Belle, Tiana, Jasmine, Rapunzel, Ariel and Snow White will amaze kids and grown-ups, once a day, with an enchanting interlude, Disney Princesses Holiday Season Celebration, which will sprinkle a little more magic.
From November 16, once daily, guests can also watch an exuberant get-together in Town Square, where Mickey, Minnie and their friends, Santa Claus, Horace and Clarabelle will all make appearances and relish a sparkling, high-spirited reunion as well as Disney Animation characters such as Stitch and Pinocchio"!
For this special occasion, the finalewill bathe guests in a festive atmosphere, with Christmas colors lighting up the castle, the famous Nutcrackers, decorated Christmas trees, gifts, and even giant candy canes. Freshly-added scenes will pay tribute to the "it's a small world" attraction, decked out in winter hues, and also to the North Pole. Indeed, Main Street, U.S.A. will dazzle wonderfully brightly, enhanced by fairytale falls of snow.
A wide array of culinary specialties awaits food enthusiasts in restaurants and bars, including a chestnut mousse with a blackcurrant insert to share, or a Mickey Mouse-shaped gingerbread. And what could be better than getting warm and cozy while savoring a delicious meal in one of the six Chalets Gourmand located at La Place de Rémy and Rue de Paris in Walt Disney Studios Park, or in the five Chalets Gourmand in Fantasyland at Disneyland Park. They will wow the tastebuds of children and adults, because the Chalets Gourmands are the perfect place to enjoy a Reblochon tartiflette, pretzels or mulled wine.
Also during the end-of-year period, a new epic show entitled Doctor Strange : Mystery of the Mystics will run in the evening from November 23, 2024 to March 29, 2025 at Marvel Avenger Campus
