Disneyland is already making plans for the 2026 Christmas holiday season

The calendar may still say December 2025, but Disneyland is already making plans for the Christmas 2026 season with a familiar holiday lineup of parades, fireworks and live music with some new food options and character costumes.

The 2026-27 winter holiday season will return to Disneyland and Disney California Adventure from Nov. 18, 2026 through early January 2027.
