The Disney Festival of Holidays: A Festive Celebration of Food, Culture, and Entertainment!



The Disney Festival of Holidays at Disney California Adventure® Park is an event that should be at the top of your holiday bucket list. THAheadline recently had the pleasure of attending the festival's opening day, and it was an unforgettable experience filled with delicious food, diverse cultural offerings, and lively entertainment.


The Festive Foods Marketplace was a highlight of the event, offering mouth-watering aromas of holiday spices and flavors. From traditional holiday dishes to unique culinary creations, there was something to please every palate. The Sip and Savor Pass allowed us to sample multiple dishes and nonalcoholic beverages, enhancing the experience even more.

Disney ¡Viva Navidad! and Mickey's Happy Holidays were two of the festival's standout performances. The vibrant and colorful street party at Disney ¡Viva Navidad! featured Mexican folkloric performers, Brazilian samba dancers, and beloved Disney Characters. Meanwhile, Mickey's Happy Holidays kept the energy levels high with its holiday toy drummers and Character pals, making it almost impossible to resist dancing along.


In addition to these performances, various groups throughout the park, such as The Mistletoes, entertained guests with joyful music and spirited dancing. These performances were a unique take on holiday celebrations and were a joy to watch.


From November 10, 2023, through January 7, 2024, visitors can experience the traditions of Christmas, Hanukkah, Diwali, Kwanza, Three Kings Day, and many more at this festive event. The park is filled with delicious food, activities, live music, and entertainment performances that will delight guests of all ages.
