Today, July 9, marks the day Disney World Resort guests can jump the line and score tickets early for two of the year’s most festive special events: Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom and Disney Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios. In this article, we’re taking a closer look at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and the event’s ticket pricing, with Jollywood Nights covered separately.
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party
Guests staying at Disney-owned resort hotels, including the Swan & Dolphin, and Shades of Green can now purchase tickets for Magic Kingdom‘s Christmas party.
Set to run on 25 select nights from November 9 to December 22, 2026, this seasonal celebration features favorites offerings such as “Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade,” “Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks,” character meet-and-greets (including rare appearances like Jack Skellington dressed as Sandy Claws!), holiday-themed ride overlays, and complimentary cookies and hot cocoa.
Ticket prices range from $189 to $229, while Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club members can save $10 off tickets on select dates. The highest-priced Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party tickets remain unchanged from last year, topping out at $229. The increase comes at the lower end of the pricing scale instead.
In 2025, guests could purchase select early November party dates starting at $169. For 2026, the least expensive ticket is $189, raising the minimum cost of admission by $20. The previous $169 and $179 price tiers have been eliminated entirely, meaning every party date now starts at a higher price point than last year.
