Walt Disney World Resort is one of the merriest places to be during the holiday season. The parks, the hotel resorts, and also Disney Springs are all decked out for the holidays. At Disney Springs, there are a lot of things to enjoy during the holidays. The Disney Parks Blog shared a bunch of ways that the holidays can be celebrated at Disney Springs. Check them out below.
Meet Santa
Visit with the big man himself at Once Upon a Toy! Santa Claus is currently greeting guests through December 24. A virtual queue is in place for this experience (subject to availability).
Yuletide Entertainment
Town Center in Disney Springs is transformed into a winter wonderland with nightly snowfall. As a former northerner-turned-Floridian, this is one of my favorite holiday touches! Snow in 75-degree weather? That’s my kind of winter. Be sure to also keep an eye out for jolly live entertainment across Disney Springs – including merry musical acts, toy soldier stilt walkers and more.

Last, but certainly not least, the teams at Disney Springs have been as busy as elves at the North Pole, cooking up some seasonal delights. You can start making your list and checking it twice with the Holiday Delights Foodie Guide.
