food IS a theme park
Nothing says “it’s the holidays in Walt Disney World” like a GIGANTIC Christmas tree!
Magic Kingdom Christmas tree
Disney LOVES to put big trees up all over the place! We’ve seen them at all four parks (Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom), as well as several resorts (Grand FloridianandWilderness Lodge both have huge ones). Now, a very ICONIC giant Christmas tree has returned to Walt Disney World — the Contemporary Resort tree!
You Guys! CHRISTMAS!!
Christmas? Wha?? “But, it’s June and it’s so hot/humid/sunny/rainy/sooooo nooooottt Christmas!”
Well…true.
BUT — it’s also only 187 days until Christmas. Yes. REALLY.
That means that if you’re planning a December Disney trip, it’s time to don your Santa hat and get into the holiday spirit, my friends!
Still wondering WHY we’re talking about Christmas IN JUNE? Ha! Lemme explain.
You can book restaurants at Disney World 180 days in advance. And the most popular restaurants book up to capacity on that first day — especially during the most popular travel week of the year in Disney World!
