June 25th is Halfway to the holidays, and Disney Parks worldwide are preparing for the 2022 Holiday season. Like me, you’re likely firing up that summertime grill, while Disney is looking ahead and preparing for the Holiday Season with a #HalfwaytotheHolidays sneak peek.
At Walt Disney World the holidays begin November 11, 2022, and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is back at the Magic Kingdom. Taking place on 24 select nights. The Hard ticketed event invites guests to a holiday festival of fun and entertainment. Tickets go on sale on June 30.
The event will feature Mickey’s Most Merriest Celebration on the Cinderella Castle Stage. Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks will be back along with Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime parade. The Jingle Cruise will return along with special holiday makeovers to the Tomorrowland Speedway, Space Mountain, Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor, and the Mad Tea party. The Totally Tomorrowland Christmas dance party alone with Disney Junior Jingle Jam in Storybook Circus and Cosmic Ray’s intergalactic dance party provide plenty of dancing opportunities for the family.

Speaking of Santa, he will be making appearances in all 4 Walt Disney World Parks, The merry menagerie of winter animals will be back at Animal Kingdom, and Olaf will be back at Hollywood studios adding his festive finale to “for the first time in forever, frozen singalong” At Disney springs Town Center will experience a magical snowfall, bringing the north pole to central Florida, The Christmas Tree Stroll will be back as will Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar.
