Happy Holidays!! Although parades and character meet-and-greets have been suspended for the time being at Disney World, we have absolutely LOVED seeing Mickey, Minnie, and tons of our friends in the character cavalcades at all 4 parks!
During Halloween, we got some specially themed cavalcades that had us saying “boo to you!” But, now we’ve moved on to “the most wonderful time of the year” and one new JOLLY motorcade has arrived at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Grab your snoap machine and join us as we celebrate the season!
So we were just watching the other cavalcades, which haven’t really changed much — nothing holiday at all. But then…these super festive dancers came out!
But who was right behind them? THE BIG GUY HIMSELF, SANTA! Santa was riding in a sweet red holiday sports car that had a big “S” on the side. And he was loaded with presents!
It’s officially Christmas, y’all! The first appearance of Santa is always so exciting every year. We’ll never get tired of it.

Ah, there’s no place like Disney’s Hollywood Studios (a.k.a. home) for the holidays! We’ll keep updating this page as we find more holiday entertainment in the park, so be sure to come back for more updates.
See Santa make an appearance in Magic Kingdom today!
