The holidays will soon be upon us! There are so many ways to celebrate the holiday season at Walt Disney World. Spend time resort hopping to marvel at the festive decorations, enjoy the Cookie Stroll at the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays, or attend one of the holiday parties at Magic Kingdom or Hollywood Studios. No matter how you choose to celebrate, there’s something for everyone.
Jollywood Nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is a relatively new addition to Disney World’s holiday offerings. This separately-ticketed after hours event, offered on select nights in November and December, made its glitzy debut in 2023. While there is festive fun to be had by all ages, this party does tend to have a more grown-up vibe overall.
Jollywood Nights Dates for 2025:
- November 8, 15, 17, 22, 24, 29
- December 1, 6, 10, 13, 17, 20, 22
Along with other party-exclusive eats and drinks found throughout the park during Jollywood Nights, there is also a special menu available at The Hollywood Brown Derby. Jazzy Holidays at the Hollywood Brown Derby allows partygoers to sip on craft cocktails, enjoy a selection of light bites unique to the party, and listen to a live pianist perform holiday tunes in an ultra sophisticated atmosphere.
