We have been going to Walt Disney World for Christmastime for 6 years and wish we could have done it when we were younger. We would not want to be anywhere else for the Holiday week. There is something special about walking down Main Street USA with snow falling, and Christmas songs playing over the speakers headed towards the Hub to find a spot to watch the nightly fireworks along the way being distracted by all the guests dressed up in matching outfits, or wearing their Christmas best.
Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks will not show on December 30th or 31st. Fantasy in the Sky, the New Year’s Eve fireworks will be shown twice daily. 6:50, and 11:50 PM both nights.
Park Hours – Magic Kingdom: 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM | 7:30 AM to 8:00 AM Early Entry.
Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks 2024 will show at 8:00 PM EST. Showing all week at 8:00 PM. Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks is normally only shown during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. Look to the sky for a dazzling fireworks show full of festive cheer.
Get in the Christmas spirit as your host—Minnie Mouse—invites you to take in a sparkling, yuletide fireworks display. Watch as the sky becomes illuminated with festive colors to the tune of some of your favorite carols like Deck the Halls and We Wish You a Merry Christmas. This seasonal spectacle can be thoroughly enjoyed from most locations throughout Magic Kingdom Park—including Liberty Square, Fantasyland, and Tomorrowland.
Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade 2024 will run two times. 11:00 PM EST and then again at 3:00 PM EST. Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade normally only runs during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. It should be running from December 23rd, 2024, until December 31st, 2024.
Reminder, Santa and Mrs. Claus will not be a part of the parade starting Christmas Day. Santa is delivering presents on Christmas Day, and then he starts his vacation. If you want to see Santa after Dec 25th, 2024, head to this link. Santa is on the beach at Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin soaking up the rays.
