What's on at Christmas
In Disneyland Park, Main Street, U.S.A. is decorated around a 24-metre tree. Mickey's Dazzling Christmas Parade runs several times a day, and the late-afternoon performance ends with the tree lighting, complete with a live choir and projections. Our pick: this is the one thing not to miss.
- Minnie and Mrs. Claus premiere a musical celebration on the Castle Stage from 14 November.
- Let's Sing Christmas, at the Videopolis Theatre: carols with Mickey and friends.
- Santa Claus meets guests in the Disney Clothiers shop, and Jack Skellington at Critter Corral, with a same-day virtual queue in the app.
The big news is in Disney Adventure World: World of Frozen celebrates its first Christmas, with Nordic decorations and a tree at the entrance to the area. In The Arendelle carolers, which lasts about 15 minutes and runs several times a day, Olaf sings with a choir, then Anna and Elsa appear and snow falls over the village. On Arendelle Bay, Ring in the season with Anna and Elsa lasts about 7 minutes.
On 31 December there are parties with DJs and fireworks over the castle at midnight in Disneyland Park, and drones and fireworks over World of Frozen in Disney Adventure World.
What you will miss: Crush's Coaster is closed from 7 September 2026 until summer 2027, and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril from 4 January 2027.

| Ticket | Price | Best for |

The child price and the price for your exact day appear when you choose a date. Disney recommends at least 2 days for a first visit, especially at Christmas; multi-day tickets are covered in Disneyland Paris ticket prices. To add up tickets, hotel and meals, use the budget calculator.
The Disney Hotels are decorated, and the Disneyland Hotel adds two shows in the lobby and a Christmas meal at the Royal Banquet, with no published price.
Which day to go and how to plan it
Weekdays outside the school holidays are usually quieter; the Christmas holidays are busier. For the full programme with smaller crowds, pick a weekday between 14 November and the start of those holidays. Day-by-day crowd forecasts are in when to visit Disneyland Paris.
- Two days: one for Disneyland Park, staying until the last parade and the tree lighting; the other for Disney Adventure World and World of Frozen.
- Clothing: you will spend hours outdoors waiting for parades. Bring layers, a hat and waterproof shoes.
- Getting there: the RER A takes about 40 minutes from Châtelet to Marne-la-Vallée/Chessy, a 2-minute walk from the parks. Arrive before opening time.
- Where to stay: with 2 days, staying next to the parks saves you the train ride at closing time; see our Disneyland Paris hotels guide.
Official website or GetYourGuide?
The official website is the price benchmark, and a dated ticket bought online is much cheaper than at the box office: €62 to €99 versus €139. On GetYourGuide you pay in your own language and currency and see the cancellation terms before paying.
Before you go
- Opening hours change every day: check the app the day before.
- To meet Jack Skellington, join the virtual queue as soon as you enter.
- From 7 to 13 November, Santa Claus and the Minnie and Mrs. Claus show have not yet arrived.
- On New Year's Eve, the drones only fly if the weather allows.
