Disney Springs Offers New Holiday Experience

Posted on by AllEars
The Disney Parks Blog this week teased about a new holiday experience coming to Disney Springs. We don't have any details yet, but you can see a very short video that drops a few hints HERE. In addition to the previously announced Christmas Tree Trail, Disney Springs will offer the following for the holidays: -- At the Marketplace, the Festival of Toys, a nightly interactive holiday dance party, will be featured at the Once Upon a Toy Fountain. There will also be pin trading and a nightly tree-lighting ceremony at 6 p.m. in that neighborhood of Disney Springs. -- Santa's Chalet will return, and Disney PhotoPass photographers will be on hand. You can pick up a pager upon arrival, allowing you to shop, dine or play while you wait for your turn in the queue to visit Santa. -- Stitch's Holiday Gift Hunt, a scavenger hunt-style activity for the whole family, is set to start on the day after Thanksgiving. The hunt will send you through all four neighborhoods of Disney Springs. Once complete, you can visit participating locations for a limited-edition completer button. Most holiday festivities will continue at Disney Springs through January 8, 2017.
