Extended park hours for Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure will be in effect for much of the season, and Downtown Disney District and the Disneyland Resort hotels will join in the fun with twinkling lights and ornaments, special entertainment and holiday dining.
Disneyland will continue to showcase its 50th Anniversary throughout the Christmas season, and will add to the golden lineup with an array of holiday shows, seasonal attractions and lively entertainment. New this year is "Santa's Reindeer Round-Up" at Big Thunder Ranch in Frontierland. The ranch will be transformed into a "West Pole" getaway where Santa will unwind with Mrs. Claus and his team of reindeer. Kids and their families can chat with St. Nick, see real reindeer grazing in a corral, play some reindeer games, create take-home Yuletide souvenirs and join in holiday line dances with music from a Western trio. "Haunted Mansion Holiday" returns with a madcap celebration where the traditions of Halloween and Christmas collide. The ghoulish but well-meaning Jack Skellington from the film "Tim Burton 's The Nightmare Before Christmas" has come to the "Haunted Mansion " to transform it with his skewed vision of the holidays. The park's annual holiday parade, "A Christmas Fantasy," will be presented November 18 through January 2 on Main Street, U.S.A. This ever-popular procession depicts an enchanting collection of holiday scenes, music and a cast of Disney characters and performers in Yuletide vignettes. Toy soldiers march in cadence, friendly snowmen dance and Santa waves from a soaring sleigh as his reindeer prance below. In Fantasyland, the classic "it's a small world" will again become "it's a small world Holiday " with a seasonal overlay that transforms this favorite Disneyland attraction into a holiday trip around the world. More than 300,000 glittery lights adorn the attraction's façade. The park will be trimmed with wreaths, lights, garland and other décor, and strolling holiday performers, including the Dickens Carolers, will make musical merriment all season long. Disneyland 's 50th Anniversary entertainment includes the all-new nightly fireworks spectacular, "Remember. Dreams Come True," the most elaborate pyrotechnics display in Disneyland history featuring an amazing new flight path for Tinker Bell. During the holidays, the "Remember" fireworks show will conclude with a stirring rendition of "White Christmas" as a magical snowfall gently flutters down on Main Street, U.S.A., Small World Mall and New Orleans Square . "Walt Disney's Parade of Dreams" continues daily on Main Street, U.S.A., immersing guests in the musical grandeur and visual spectacle of this innovative Disney parade. Within the high-speed "Space Mountain " in Tomorrowland, guests will discover new special effects, a redesigned Spaceport and other surprises, while intergalactic adventurers can battle the evil Emperor Zurg in the new "Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters" attraction.
