The holiday season at Disney World always sneaks up a little earlier than expected. One day, you’re walking past Mickey pumpkins, and the next, the parks are decked out in garlands, twinkling lights, and the unmistakable sounds of Christmas carols.

This year, Disney isn’t wasting any time stirring up the festive spirit. With the holidays nearly upon us, the company has already revealed a lineup of merchandise that’s bound to be flying off shelves faster than you can say “Jingle Bells.”

These items aren’t just souvenirs—they’re seasonal must-haves that fans will scramble to grab both in the parks and online.

Christmas at Disney World

Part of what makes Disney World so magical in December is how the parks transform into a winter wonderland. Magic Kingdom hosts Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, a beloved after-hours event filled with snow on Main Street, festive parades, and exclusive treats.

Over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Jollywood Nights returns for another year, offering guests live entertainment, themed snacks, and a glitzy holiday vibe that feels right out of a classic movie. EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays ties it all together with international food booths, storytellers, and candlelight processions.

With so many festive experiences, it’s only natural that Disney would roll out equally festive merchandise. Let’s break down the 2025 holiday lineup by category.
