food IS a theme park
It’s one of the absolute CRAZIEST times of the year at Walt Disney World…the bustling week between Christmas and New Year’s!
Even though Disney World is still operating under limited capacity, there’s a certain undeniable buzz in the air during this time of year, and you really have to SEE it to feel it. And if you aren’t there yourself, well, don’t sweat it. Take a journey with us from our photos and videos from Walt Disney World on December 29th!
We’ve been celebrating the holiday season for a WHILE now at Disney World with festive character cavalcades, delicious treats, and more!
Santa
And while we’ve seen Santa in the parks in special ways this year, it seems jolly old Saint Nicholas has to spend a bit more time back in the North Pole preparing for Christmas 2021 and needs someone to take over some of his cavalcade duties. So, his more goofy counterpart has been popping up in Disney World!
Welcome back to the world of Hollywood glam, Toy Story, and Star Wars!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
We visited Disney’s Hollywood Studios to take in the last moments of Christmas at Disney World. We found some new merchandise, found a strange holiday treat makeover, and spotted Goofy in a new outfit! Step inside the glitz and glitter of a bustling young movie town at the height of its golden age!
Of all the changes at Disney World this year, the one that we’ve loved the most might be the character cavalcades!
Mickey at EPCOT
Seeing Mickey and friends riding through the World Showcase or spotting our favorite princesses headed down Magic Kingdom’s parade route really helps us to feel the magic in the parks. We especially enjoy watching the unique holiday cavalcades around the parks, and post-Christmas, one of them got a switch-up!
Although you can’t hug your favorite Disney characters at the moment, we’ve really enjoyed seeing some of our best pals in character cavalcades, at modified character dining experiences, and in modified meet-and-greets.
Goofy!
We’ve even been able to see the ever so special Santa Goofy over at Minnie’s Holiday Dine in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. But today we spotted Santa Goofy in Magic Kingdom in a totally different form!
We’re BACK at Hollywood & Vine in Disney’s Hollywood Studios for another character dining experience.
Minnie’s Holiday Dine
And this time, Christmas magic is in the air. Last time we were here, we were SHOCKED by how wonderful the food was. So we’re back to see if anything has been added to the menu and to see Mickey and his pals in their Christmas outfits!
It’s the dawn of a brand new decade and it’s of no surprise that crowds have been a common theme around Walt Disney World this past week!
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster line
Have no fear! We braved the sea of holiday visitors to bring you another installment of What’s New in Hollywood Studios!
