Contributing photographer Jason of disneygeek.com sends us these photos from his trip to the parks on Wednesday, November 25, 2015.
To kick off my Thanksgiving weekend I spent the afternoon/evening at the Disneyland Resort enjoying some of the entertainment Disneyland Park has to offer this time of year. As always to see the full picture set visit my site.
First up A Christmas Fantasy Parade as I entered the park. Also notice the lights for the Candlelight Processional are up, the Candlelight is December 5 & 6 this year.

Snow fall during Disneyland Forever.. not quite the traditional White Christmas but better than none…


Looking back at the crowd as the spot lights were on while a Kiss Good Night played.

The Christmas lights in the trees were on after the show.

Sleeping Beauty Castle after Disneyland Forever
I stopped by Tomorrowland to see the lights for Star Wars Season of the Force.. it is not really a show.. more just spotlights that were on while Star Wars music played.

A video clip of the lights. As you can see not a lot of movement this evening.
Made my way out to Small World to see the quarter hour projection show.
Stopped to watch most of Fantasmic from a stand by location in New Orleans Square.

Back to Main Street, 5 minutes until the second Disneyland Forever this evening. All week the Disneyland Resort is experimenting and running two fireworks show nightly in an effort to reduce gridlock in the park at night.


Plenty of space around me just before show time.

Round two of Disneyland Forever at 9:30pm



One last snow picture to wrap up the trip.
