You’ll want to check your party map to see when these entertainment offerings will be presented each night of the party, because trust us, you won’t want to miss them!

Glisten — A Skating Spectacular

The new show this year is Glisten, which features international champion skaters dancing on the ice to holiday music! You can find this show at 8:15 PM, 9:15PM, 10:20PM, 11:15PM and 12:15AM.

You’ll find this show on Hollywood Boulevard, where you’ll be able to see projections on the Chinese Theater to tie the whole show together.

Look at that lift!

We really enjoyed this show and would recommend it! It only is a 15-minute show so it won’t eat away too much of your party time, which is important when the party is pretty short. The ice skating was impressive and it really put us in the holiday spirit!

We enjoyed this!

Holidays in Hollywood

Over at Theater of the Stars on Sunset Boulevard, you’ll find Miss Piggy and Kermit hosting a spectacular show featuring lots of singing and dancing, and of course, some of the classic antics between the two Muppets.

Showtimes are 8:15PM, 9:15PM, 11:15PM and 12:15AM.

Missy Piggy and Kermit

The whole premise of this new show is that you’re the live audience of the filming of a Holiday Special show. Kermit and Miss Piggy are joined by lots of other Disney characters like Belle, Mickey, and Minnie!

Mickey and Minnie

This show is a MUST-DO for us. We love all the different characters that come together for this show. This show makes us feel so much joy! It has elements of comedy, love, and we loved the lead singers.

We loved this!

What’s This? Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along

Fans of The Nightmare Before Christmas will want to stop by the Hyperion Theatre to see this sing-along, which has been transformed to match the show’s spooky feel. Shows are at 7:30PM, 8:30PM, 9:30PM, 11:30PM, and 12:30AM.

Jack!

Two Cast Members will lead you on this dreamlike adventure inspired by the film, and you’ll even get to see Oogie Boogie and Jack himself!

Echo Lake Throwback Bash

There is also a throwback bash that happens over at Echo Lake where you can stir up nostalgia for the 1990s and 2000s. You never know who you might spot during the bash from Phineas and Ferb to Max Goof as Powerline. Plus, there are some new additions this year including Baloo and King Louie!

Baloo

Holiday Fiesta en la Calle

You can also head over to Animation Courtyard for a lively holiday street fair. Holiday Fiesta en la Calle happens from 7:30PM until 12:30AM.

Holiday Fiesta en la Calle

The fair features warm lighting, festive decor, and live musicians performing Latin holiday tunes. During the celebration, you may even spot a special appearance from José Carioca and Panchito.

Pixar Place Dance Party

Pixar Place is also getting a new addition this year. Pixar Place is hosting a rockin’ dance party with some of your favorite Pixar friends including Joy, Frozone, and Edna Mode. We headed over to Pixar Place to check out the party!

Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM!

One of the biggest shows of the night is the fireworks spectacular, which takes place at 10PM each party night.

Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM

It takes place in front of the Chinese Theater and features tons of projections set to holiday tunes.

We love this show!

Jazzy Holidays & Twilight Soirée at the Tip Top Club

Jazzy Holidays is a limited-capacity event inside the event that features holiday music, craft cocktails and snacks available for purchase, and old Hollywood vibes at the Hollywood Brown Derby. Advance dining recommendations are very much recommended for this experience!

Similarly, the Twilight Soirée at the Tip Top Club is another limited-capacity event that takes place in the courtyard of The Hollywood Tower Hotel.

Twilight Soiree

You can sip on cocktails while you listen to live music from the band Rachel and the Alley Cats. This was very fun for us! In between sets, Jack and Jo, street actors, come out to entertainment.

The band

Be sure you head there early in the evening to grab a spot — music performances will be at 7:30PM, 8:10PM, 8:50PM, 9:30PM, 10:30PM, 11:10PM, and 11:50PM each night. We would highly recommend to catch this! It does get crowded by there so be aware of that.

Great show!

Projections on Tower of Terror

The beloved Hollywood Holiday Tower Hotel projection show is BACK at Disney’s Hollywood Studios! We already love looking at the Tower of Terror. But now, we have even more of a reason to gaze at its beauty.

Christmas Projections

The show uses projections, lights, music, and the nearby screen “billboard” to show clips that complement the projections.

Toy Story!

We love that you can watch this while snoap is falling around you!
