Disney Hollywood Studios® The Osborne Spectacle of Dancing Lights™
Grab a hot chocolate and some Mickey glowsticks and celebrate this beautiful spectacle lining the Streets of America® that will be shown one last time this November 6 through January 3. Beautiful Christmas lights displaying snowflakes, Santa Claus, reindeer, snowmen, and more have bedazzled visitors since 2005 and will unfortunately end this year due to the park’s new additions of Star Wars and Toy Story lands. Make sure to see these beautiful lights reminiscent of traditional Christmas practices one last time this season.

Watch as Christmas comes alive in Magic Kingdom® Park as Disney characters celebrate the holiday season! Begin your day with Anna and Elsa, with the help of their friends Kristoff and Olaf, transforming Cinderella Castle into an ice palace, then watch Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade in Main Street U.S.A. where you can meet Mickey and his friends and wave high to Santa Claus. Grab your free cookies and hot chocolate and watch as fireworks light up Cinderella Castle at night. The party only happens on these nights: November 8, 10, 2, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 29 and December 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17 and 18.
