Signature Holiday Experiences
MVMCP delivers a holiday atmosphere unlike anything else at Walt Disney World. Here's what makes the night truly magical.
Jack Skellington as Sandy Claws
Meet the Pumpkin King himself dressed as Sandy Claws — one of the rarest and most beloved character meet-and-greets on Disney property. Sally joins him for photos throughout the night.
Snow on Main Street, U.S.A.
Watch Main Street transform as gentle snowfall drifts down over the parade route and Cinderella Castle. It's the kind of Disney moment that gets shared for years — and it's only at MVMCP.
Free Cookies & Hot Cocoa
Cookie stations throughout Magic Kingdom serve up complimentary treats and warm cocoa all night long. It's a holiday tradition guests look forward to as much as the parade itself.
2026 MVMCP Ticket Prices
Prices vary by date — early November nights are the most affordable, while late-December dates run to the top of the range.
Early November mid-week dates (Nov. 9, 12, 17). The most affordable way to experience MVMCP in 2026.
Late November through early December — full holiday decor is up and the atmosphere is perfect. The sweet spot for most guests.
The final four parties of the season (Dec. 17, 18, 20, 22). These dates sell out first every year.
Everything Included With Your MVMCP Ticket
One ticket. Five hours of party. Endless holiday magic — plus three bonus hours of Magic Kingdom starting at 4 PM.
Holiday Parades, Fireworks & Shows
Mickey's Once Upon a Christmastime Parade makes its way through Magic Kingdom with Toy Soldiers, Frozen favorites, dancing gingerbread, reindeer — and Santa himself bringing up the rear.
Minnie's Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks lights up the sky above Cinderella Castle with dazzling projections, holiday carols, and a fireworks display hosted by Minnie Mouse.
Mickey's Most Merriest Celebration takes over the Castle stage with a nostalgic mix of holiday songs, dance performances, and a joyful Mickey & pals lineup.
Rare & Exclusive Characters
Meet Mickey & Minnie in their holiday best at Town Square Theater, plus Jack Skellington as Sandy Claws with Sally, Anna and Elsa in their Frozen holiday attire, and Santa himself at Storybook Circus. Additional festive appearances scattered throughout the park.
Cookies, Cocoa & Holiday Snacks
Cookie and hot cocoa stations run all night at locations throughout Magic Kingdom — as much as you want, all included with your ticket. Specialty holiday food and drink items are also available for purchase, including the always-popular Peppermint Mocha Cocoa.
Rides & Holiday Overlays at MVMCP
Magic Kingdom stays open with limited capacity — meaning shorter lines. Plus, five fan-favorite attractions get exclusive holiday overlays during the party.
All attractions, overlays, and experiences subject to change without notice.
Cinderella Castle Projections
Throughout the night, Cinderella Castle comes alive with a stunning holiday light show — jewel tones, falling snow, gingerbread, and shimmering ornaments dance across the castle spires. It runs multiple times each party night in between shows.
Holiday Food & Beverage
Enjoy festive food and drink available throughout the night, from Peppermint Mocha Cocoa and gingerbread-topped desserts to seasonal specialty cocktails at select locations. New 2026 menu items will be revealed closer to opening night.
