Decorations are already starting to be put up along Sunset Boulevard, which can only mean on thing…the festivities will begin shortly. From November 8, 2018 through January 6, 2019, the Holiday Spirit will be in full swing.
I realize that it’s sort of silly to be talking about Christmas before Halloween has even come yet. But, remember, Halloween decorations and parties have been in full swing in the Magic Kingdom since August.
Many want to experience the Holidays at Disney, but don’t like crowds that come with it. So, by extending the Holidays, Guests have the opportunity to experience the decorations and the celebrations during otherwise “slower” times at Disney.

Can we stop for a moment and say how adorable Woody, Jessie, and Buzz look in their Christmas outfits?
Starting on November 8, 2018, Woody is trading in his cowboy vest for a Holiday one, decorated with a Christmas Tree and presents. He will also have a candy cane in his holster. Jessie is also trading in her cowgirl vest for a red vest with a peppermint. And Buzz Lightyear looks adorable with his Santa Hat.
If you’d like pictures with these guys during the Holiday Season, make sure to check My Disney Experience to find out when and where they are having their Meet-and-Greets.
But, not only are Woody, Jessie, and Buzz dressing up for the Holidays, Toy Story Land is being decorated in all new Seasonal decor, as well.
Oversized cranberry-and-popcorn garland will adorn the area. I can not wait to see this all done up. I bet it’s going to be adorable.
A giant Holiday Card with Toy Story pals, and oversized Hamm sugar cookie, and Green Alien ornaments are perfect for taking those one-of-a-kind Holiday photos of loved ones…or selfies of yourself.
While you’re there, be sure to listen for new audio and music throughout the area. You will be able to hear sleigh bells on Slinky Dog Dash and Alien Swirling Saucers 2 new Holiday tracks, created just for the ride. To add to the holiday spirit, Alien Swirling Saucers are getting some festive themed lighting, as well.
It’s going to be an amazing Holiday Season with some magical festivities! All of this buildup has me thinking, “Hmm…Can I squeeze in a short Birthday Trip before the Christmas fun is over?”
Will you be attending the festivities in Hollywood Studios this year?
