It’s the most wonderful time of the year at Disney World!
We know — we’re not even halfway through November and it feels like Halloween decoration just came down, but Disney is already fully celebrating the holidays! The first Disney Very Merriest After Hours event took place the other night, Christmas trees and gingerbread houses are up around the parks and hotels, and there’s even festive food available! Something a lot of people look forward to every year is the Disney Christmas Special that airs on Christmas Day on ABC, and today, we saw filming for the special taking place in EPCOT!
We noticed cameras and a small stage set up at the entrance of EPCOT today in front of Spaceship Earth.
The stage was surrounded by silver Christmas trees and other holiday decor!
There were a lot of crew members getting things set up.
We even saw a snoap machine!
We love seeing snoap, even if it is over 70 degrees in Orlando.

We hung out for a little to see who would be showing up on the stage, and then country singer Brett Eldredge showed up!
Brett Eldredge has done multiple Disney TV specials before, so it’s no surprise to see him doing another one!
We heard him singing “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer!”

And he had the lyrics there, just in case!
Brett was looking very festive in his teal velvet jacket.
We’re so excited to see him in the special!
We’ll be on the lookout for more filming in the Disney Parks, so stay tuned to DFB for news and updates!
