This Year, Relax and Enjoy Your Holidays at Disneyland

Why Disneyland for the Holidays? 

This year from Nov 15 to Jan 6, 2025, Disneyland transforms into a festive wonderland, making it one of the most magical places on Earth to spend the holidays. Think about it – why not visit during a time when the park is at its peak magic?

The park is adorned with stunning holiday decorations, including a dazzling 60-foot Christmas tree and Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle draped in glistening snow and lights. Holiday-themed parades, nighttime spectaculars like the Believe… in Holiday Magic Fireworks Spectactular, and festive music create an atmosphere brimming with cheer. 

Sharing the experience of Disneyland during the holidays with family or friends is like nothing else. Pair that with the sense of adventure that comes with traveling in a camper van, and you’ll create long-lasting memories. Imagine unwinding with hot cocoa in your camper van after a day of magical park adventures—it’s the epitome of a festive family getaway.
