Itβs the most magical time of the year! I am absolutely the kind of person who wakes up on November 1, immediately dons my favorite Christmas sweater (regardless of the weather) and cranks up the Christmas tunes. So, you can only imagine my excitement to be able to share all the amazing holiday happenings at Disney Springs this year, available now through December 30. The holidays are in full swing around here, and youβll find returning favorites and some new seasonal surprises. Keep reading for details on all the magical merriment.

Meet Santa
Visit with the big man himself at Once Upon a Toy! Santa Claus is currently greeting guests through December 24. A virtual queue is in place for this experience (subject to availability).

Yuletide Entertainment
Town Center in Disney Springs is transformed into a winter wonderland with nightly snowfall. As a former northerner-turned-Floridian, this is one of my favorite holiday touches! Snow in 75-degree weather? Thatβs my kind of winter. Be sure to also keep an eye out for jolly live entertainment across Disney Springs β including merry musical acts, toy soldier stilt walkers and more.
