3 NEW Ways to Celebrate Christmas at Disney Springs

New offerings and returning favorites this year at Disney Springs

The holiday season is underway at Walt Disney World Resort with festive decorations in every corner. This is an ideal opportunity for guests to enjoy joyful activities with their loved ones, indulge in tasty seasonal treats, and make lasting memories together.

Here are 3 new holiday offerings that guests can experience this year:

Experience Holiday Magic at the World of Disney Windows

For the first time, the windows at the World of Disney store interact with guests' MagicBand+ to create enchanting holiday experiences for the whole family. Each window features festive themes along with unique animations and personalized elements activated by tapping a MagicBand+.

Guests can enjoy two storylines starring beloved characters that shouldn’t be missed this holiday season.

Don’t forget to explore all the windows, which may spark ideas for writing letters to Santa.

Visit Santa’s Marketplace

Guests can Santa’s Marketplace near Disney’s Pin Traders and share their Christmas list with Santa in person! Or if guests are looking to spread holiday cheer with a family Christmas card, the Disney PhotoPass team is ready to capture the perfect photo of the whole family.  

When guests arrive at Disney Springs, they can join the virtual queue to visit Santa and enjoy holiday shopping while they wait.


Christmas Tree Stroll

One of my favorite things to do during the holiday season is to see all the different trees on the Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll. I'm excited that it has returned this year with some new additions!

My family and I stroll across Disney Springs to see the entire collection of beautifully decorated Christmas trees celebrating some Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, and superhero favorites.

This year be sure to look for those that offer interactions with MagicBand+ experiences
