Holidays at Disneyland

Disneyland is re-imagined for the holiday season from November 9 to January 6, 2019. My family visited Disneyland for three days during Thanksgiving week.

From Sleeping Beauty’s winter castle looking like a Frozen palace to a lighting at 5:15pm of It’s a Small World to a Christmas holiday themed parade, Disneyland offered significant decor, ride and entertainment alterations for the holidays to create a different kind of park experience for the visitor.

Winter holiday alterations included an immense Christmas Tree on Main Street to It’s a Small World characters singing Christmas carols and the Haunted House as a Tim Burton The Nightmare Before Christmas themed ride.
