Halloween may have just kicked off in Disney World, but they’re already sharing details about the next holiday we get to celebrate in the parks!

Last month, Disney announced that Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party would be replaced with an all-new event called Disney Very Merriest After Hours. We knew that the event would kick off on November 8 and run select nights through December 21st, 2021 but now we have ALL the dates for the party!
Disney has announced that Very Merriest After Hours will take place in Magic Kingdom from 9PM to 1AM on 24 nights this holiday season including:
- November: 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21, 23, 28, 30
- December: 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 16, 17, 19, 21

During the event, guests will be able to experience holiday attraction overlays on select rides, enjoy complimentary snacks throughout the park at select snack kiosks, greet characters in their holiday best, and even watch “Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks” and the FULL “Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade!”

Tickets will cost $169 to $229 on select nights from November through December with December 19th and 21st costing $249. And, they’ll go on sale beginning August 20th, with guests staying at select Disney Resort hotels, Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Hotels, as well as Shades of Green at Walt Disney World Resort able to book their tickets as early as August 17th.
Of course, we’ll continue to keep an eye out for more updates on the new after hours event, so be sure to stay tuned to AllEars for the latest!
