Christmas
at the Disneyland Resort
Celebrate the Holidays at the
Disneyland
Resort. From November 21, 2008 through January 4, 2009, the Disneyland resort in
Southern California
transforms into a Christmas Wonderland with special Parades, Shows and Entertainment that are sure to make this a memorable holiday season for your entire family.
One of this season's highlights is 'Sleeping Beauty's Winter Castle' and the three part show which takes place each day.
This park icon is covered in freshly fallen 'snow.' The sparkling towers and turrets are a great backdrop for photos during the day and at night, the Disney magic begins.
Twilight brings the start of 'When you Wish'. You'll hear the wind blowing and hear a little child wishing for snow. The mother responds with 'in order for your wishes to come true, you must believe.' With that, snow flurries fill the air and the castle begins to glisten.
Later in the evening is the "Believe...in Holiday Magic Fireworks Spectacular." As the child again wishes for snow, magic and icicles, the snow falls again and Sleeping Beauty Castle becomes more illuminated.
The grand finale follows the "When you Believe" fireworks. As 'White Christmas' is performed, icicles appear on the castle as snow falls on Main Street, New Orlean's Square, small world mall and the snow on the castle becomes a jewel like display.
Other favorite traditions are back at Disneyland
Park
. There's the 60 foot Christmas Tree located in
Town Square
and the streets are trimmed with garland and wreaths with special events throughout the parks. Children will love decorating cookies on
Main Street
and
New Orleans Square
. The cast of Characters are ready for Christmas and are sure to bring holiday cheer.
