 Each country has its own special theme that highlights
its culture. Storytellers will delight you with tales
of their heritage and how the holidays are celebrated
in their homeland. It's a unique opportunity to learn
more about the world in which we live. Many of these storytellers are the country's version of Santa.
Meet Santa Claus at the American Adventure daily at
1:30 pm - 3:30 pm, 4:10 pm - 6:10 pm and 6:50 pm - 8:50 pm.
There's nothing that's more inspirational than the nightly Candlelight Processional. This beautiful show evokes the true meaning of the holidays and is not to be missed.
Illuminations is enhanced for the Holidays. "Let There Be Peace On Earth" with narration by Walter Cronkite will be the finale of this amazing nightly show.

Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. There's a special
animal themed tree that's displayed outside the entrance.
Once inside, you'll want to visit Camp Minnie-Mickey.
Here you'll find trees trimmed with a delightful Disney
character theme. Of course, a visit to the "Adirondacks" means that there will be a hint of frost in the air.
Look for snow topped light poles that are bedecked with
garland.
A visit to Santa takes on a new twist when you head to Santa Goofy’s Wild Wonderland. Complete with red suit and white beard, Goofy is ready for a unique holiday picture.
