The 2025 Christmas season atDisneyland Paris promises to be particularly rich in new features and family entertainment.Disney's Enchanted Christmas returns from November 8, 2025, to January 6, 2026, with a new festive edition featuring shows, parades, and brand-new highlights. This winter season transports families and friends into a fairytale setting, where the park lights up every day under the artificial snow of Main Street U.S.A., among giant fir trees, fairy lights, and Christmas music.
Among the new features to discover at Disneyland Paris for Christmas 2025, Mrs. Claus will make her first appearance, complementing the traditional encounters with Santa Claus, while new light projections will transform the park's facades after dark. Visitors will also be able to meet Belle in her winter outfit, inspired by the movie Beauty and the Beast, for magical photo opportunities in the heart of the Christmas season.
From the beginning of November, Disneyland Park is transformed into a real-life Christmas fairy tale. A majestic Christmas tree rises 24 meters high, proudly dominating the park. Main Street U.S.A. is sprinkled with a delicate layer of snow and more than 1,000 ornaments, immersing visitors in a magical and warm atmosphere. Several times a day, snow will fall on the park's main avenue, while the shop windows and facades will come alive with lighting effects and seasonal decorations. These visual moments punctuate the day and reinforce visitors' immersion in the Christmas spirit.
Every evening starting November 21, in Town Square, a majestic 24-meter Christmas tree will light up to the sound of a choir performing seasonal songs live. Mickey, Minnie, and their friends will join in this symbolic ceremony, marking the start of the nighttime festivities. The facades of Main Street U.S.A. will come alive with magical projections, enveloping visitors in a warm, wintery atmosphere.
In addition to the parade, visitors will be treated to other entertainment. What's more, the unique opportunity to meet Disney Characters in festive outfits, as well as Santa Claus, will be a special moment for children and their families. Note that starting November 16, visitors will also be able to meet Aurora and Prince Philip in the Castle, as well as other characters in their festive costumes, such asStitch, Goofy, and Jack Skellington.
For the first time in the park's history, Mrs. Claus will be present alongside Santa Claus to meet visitors. Warm and friendly, she will share her Christmas stories and anecdotes about preparing for the holidays with young and old alike. These exclusive encounters will complement the traditional photo sessions with Santa Claus before he sets off on his world tour.
A true institution at Disneyland Paris, this luminous parade returns to light up Main Street U.S.A. with its colorful floats and lively music. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and their friends parade alongside the Disney Princesses and Santa Claus, offering a unique visual and auditory spectacle. Awarded the Brass Ring Award for Most Creative Holiday Show bythe International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) in 2022, this parade is one of the most eagerly awaited moments of the season.
Spread between Fantasyland and Walt Disney Studios Park, these chalets offer a selection of seasonal specialties. Hot chocolate, waffles, soups, mulled wine, and Christmas treats will be available in an atmosphere reminiscent of traditional markets.
The destination's iconic establishment will be decked out in festive colors, with royal decorations and unique entertainment. Visitors can attend La Gardienne du Temps et la Lumière de l'Hiver(The Guardian of Time and the Light of Winter), a musical tale performed in the hotel lobby, or enjoy festive menus served in its restaurants, accompanied by themed desserts and exclusive drinks.
This family show takes place at the Videopolis Theater in Discoveryland. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, and Goofy lead the audience in singing Christmas classics such as Petit Papa Noël and Vive le Vent. Visitors will have the opportunity to sing along to these iconic melodies in a friendly atmosphere.
Every day from November 16, at the foot of Sleeping Beauty Castle, the Disney princesses— Aurora, Cinderella, Belle, Tiana, Jasmine, Rapunzel, Ariel, and Snow White —gather for an elegant waltz. This show highlights the elegance and magic of the Disney universe through refined costumes and graceful choreography.
From December 5, 2025, to January 4, 2026, come meet Deadpool for a singing and dancing performance like only he knows how to do, and join him for epic celebrations at Avengers Campus at Walt Disney Studios. An antihero who will roam the campus... on his magical unicorn!
The season will end with a big New Year's Eve party at Disneyland Paris. On December 31, the park will extend its hours until 1 a.m. Visitors will be able to watch a spectacular fireworks display over Sleeping Beauty Castle, ending the year in a bright and festive atmosphere.
This Christmas season is primarily aimed at families with children, lovers of magical shows, and visitors who want to immerse themselves in the world of Disney. Character encounters, the Sparkling Christmas Parade, the tree lighting ceremony, and musical shows are designed for families looking to share a festive moment in a safe and organized setting. Stays at Disney Hotels also offer an ideal extension of this experience, thanks to special decorations and entertainment dedicated to younger guests.
We were able to discover this season when it launched... And families are truly in the spotlight, with lots of entertainment for children, such as Mrs. Claus handing out candy to the little ones at the park entrance, around the Christmas tree. The decorations are quite breathtaking: garlands, baubles galore, Disney characters... We are immersed in a slightly Victorian-style Christmason Main Street U.S.A. ( it's not the actual period, but you get the idea...), while Walt Disney Studios offers something more "urban," with decorations that could be found in our cities in France and Navarre. We still appreciate the effort made for the second park, particularly in the Ratatouille area, with decorations on the fountain and in the trees, very reminiscent of the Champs-Élysées illuminations...
Note that the Christmas season is particularly popular, so the parks are often full and it's a good idea to book well in advance if you want to visit. Good shoes are also highly recommended, as you'll be doing a lot of walking. And if they're warm, so much the better in the winter cold. Obviously, dress appropriately with warm clothes and a raincoat in case of rain.
And of course, stay until the night show, which, although it does not feature a special Christmas scene, is well worth seeing. Enjoy the projections on Main Street U.S.A. beforehand for an unparalleled immersion in the magic of Christmas. All you have to do is book!
The shops and restaurants in the park and hotels will also offer a selection of themed products for the holiday season. Visitors will find exclusive items such as Mickey and Minnie plush toys in festive outfits, sparkling ornaments, Belle's winter cape, and a headband adorned with red sequins.
Finally, to prolong the magic, the Boutique du Château will offer visitors a complete range of Disney-inspired Christmas decorations throughout the year. Shall we spend Christmas at the park, friends?
