Disney has shared new information for the upcoming Disney Jollywood Nights, debuting November 11, 2023, at Disney's Hollywood Studios.
"Disney Holidays in Hollywood," is a star-studded variety show in the grand tradition of Tinseltown holiday specials – all with a twist of today's Hollywood magic.
With special guest stars including Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Tiana, Belle, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, there are plenty of surprises in store, including a brand-new original song by Tiana. Singers, dancers and live jazz musicians round out the talented cast of entertainers in this show at Theater of the Stars.
"What's This? Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along" in The Hyperion Theater sees Jack Skellington take us on an ethereal exploration of "Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas." Sing along to beloved songs from the iconic film and discover peculiar magic in unexpected places. Along the way, you'll conquer Oogie Boogie and be encouraged to follow your curiosity.
Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and friends are wearing new outfits exclusively for this glitzy celebration – and they invite you to do the same. The new outfits are inspired by the party's vintage vibe, which celebrates the glitz and glam of Hollywood. At the Animation Courtyard, the gang has just wrapped on the set of their new holiday film, and you're invited to catch a glimpse of the magic with Mickey & Friends Holiday Greetings.
Elsewhere a DJ will play the merriest of mash-ups, featuring a mix of smooth classics layered with modern beats. While tunes at the entrance set the tone for the evening, stroll around Echo Lake for a trip down a more recent memory lane featuring holiday music and characters from classic Disney Channel favorites, including Powerline Max, Rescue Rangers Chip' n' Dale and Phineas and Ferb.
At Welcome to Disney Jollywood Nights, strike your best pose for "The Gram" in front of a stunning new neon sign before joining the dance party. Disney PhotoPass photographers will be there to capture the moment, and complimentary digital downloads of your Disney PhotoPass photos captured during the event are included with the price of your ticket.
A Robotic Arm Magic Shot will capture your red carpet moment with a glamorous, show-stopping video. There's also a Camera Array Magic shot – seven cameras that will shoot a boomerang-style photo of your group in front of a Disney Jollywood Nights backdrop.
