A Fan-Favorite Christmas Experience Returns to Disney World…and It’s FREE!

One of our favorite Disney World holiday activities has returned! The best part is that it is completely free — you don’t even need a park ticket to enjoy it.

The Lion King Christmas Tree

The Christmas Tree Stroll has returned to Disney Springs, and we think it’s a great way to celebrate the holidays. From November 13th until January 4th, 2026, you can head over to Disney Springs to stroll through 19 different themed Christmas trees. These trees are located all throughout Disney Springs, and each one is inspired by a Disney theme.

You will spot trees themed to Encanto, Nightmare Before Christmas, Frozen, Haunted Mansion, The Lion King, and so many more! You can even spot an Annual Passholder tree and a tree inspired by Disney Villains. While you can totally just stroll around Disney Springs enjoying the trees, you can also stop by select locations in Disney Springs to grab a complimentary map.

The complimentary map features a sticker sheet and a map with all the tree locations. As you make your way around Disney Springs, you can simply put the sticker in the right location.

Once you have completed the map, you can bring the map back to one of the select locations to receive a prize! The map also features lots of special deals and discounts at Disney Springs. You can shop, dine, and admire trees all at the same time.

Don’t forget to grab a map!

This year, you can get a map at one of the following locations:

We won’t spoil all of the trees you will be able to see on your stroll, but here is a peek at a few of the trees to get you excited! First up, here is the Encanto tree, which you can find near World of Disney.

Once you have found all the trees, you can bring your map back to a redemption location to receive a prize. If you want to be surprised, stop reading now, as we are about to spoil the prize. But, if you are curious, keep on going! You will receive a Christmas Tree Stroll 2025 ornament. The ornament is available while supplies last.

Completion Prize

We always enjoy completing this activity each year. You get to see some beautiful trees and enjoy Disney Springs at the same time. If you have some time to spare during your Disney World trip, we definitely recommend heading over to Disney Springs. You can even catch “snoap” falling in the evening near the Town Center Christmas tree.
