Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party vs Jollywood Nights

The holidays are one of our favorite times to visit Walt Disney World—from festive decorations and special characters to holiday treats and even snow on Main Street! A few weeks ago, we headed to Florida to experience two after-hours holiday events: Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom and Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios. In this episode, we break down what each party does best—and where they fall short. In this episode you’ll hear: Highlights from Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party 🎅 What makes Jollywood Nights unique (and very different) 🎶 Holiday characters, food, entertainment, and atmosphere at each event Which party surprised us the most And ultimately… which one is our favorite 👀 If you’re trying to decide which Disney holiday party is right for you, this episode will help you plan the perfect festive night.
