The 2021 Christmas party at Disney World is going to look a bit different. Like last year, Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is put on hiatus because of Covid-concerns. Instead, Disney has decided to replace the popular party with a new special ticketed event, Disney Very Merriest After Hours.
Disney Very Merriest After Hours
Disney Very Merriest After Hours is a separate ticketed event that begins Nov. 8, 2021, and continues on select nights through the holiday season.
The four-hour experience with feature “Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks,” special opportunities to see Disney characters throughout the park and plenty of holiday cheer.
The event will be open to a limited number of guests after regular park operating hours. The event will run from 9:00 PM to 1:00 AM, but guests with tickets can arrive as early as 7pm.
Like the traditional Christmas party, you can expect special holiday treats and a limited number of rides & attractions with much lower wait times.
Of course, the Jingle Cruise will be part of this celebration!
