The holiday season unofficially kicked off at Walt Disney World, with decorations already up in most locations except EPCOT, and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party set to begin shortly.

Walt Disney World has released its holiday season menus for Christmas 2024, featuring a variety of new drinks, appetizers, entrees, desserts, and snacks across Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, Disney Springs, and resort hotels.

The full holiday festivities are scheduled from November 12, 2024, through early January 2025. EPCOT’s International Festival of the Holidays is set to run from Black Friday to December 30, 2024. While the foodie guide is exhaustive, here’s a glimpse into what you can get at the Christmas 2024 party.

· At Amorette’s Patisserie of Disney Springs, one can get Christmas Present Petit Cake, Christmas Snickerdoodle Cookie Croissant, Peppermint Swirl Cheesecake, Mini Christmas Croquembouche, among others.

· Enzo’s Hideaway will offer Apple Dram, Apple Spritz, Holiday Haze and Cocoa Blush.

· Similarly, at Erin McKenna’s Bakery NYC, you will get Christmas Waffle and Gingerbread Cupcake with vanilla buttercream, sprinkled cinnamon, and an edible gingerbread man topper.

· Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar will offer Air Tours Bacon and Waffles, Holiday Mine Car Meatballs, O’ Ham ‘n’ Cheese Trees, Here We Come a-Croquetting, Naughty or Nice Deviled Eggs, etc.

· If you visit Morimoto Asia, don’t forget to try Pearadise Tea, Bloom & Fall, Midnight Ube Spritzer, Tarutomēpuru “Tart Maple”, and Aki “Autumn Bliss.”

In the previous year, nearly half of the holiday season menus didn’t launch until late November or even December. This year, the extensive menu was particularly noteworthy, with over 100 holiday items planned for Christmas 2024. The items mentioned above are only a few highlights. The extensive list can be viewed from the official website disneyparksblog.com.


What else to expect from the Walt Disney World Holiday Foodie Guide?

While this food guide covered many seasonal offerings, it reportedly didn’t include everything. A prior release detailed all food and dessert options for the 2024 Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, including complimentary cookies and drinks.

Additional menus for the 2024 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays are expected soon, featuring two new booths alongside a mix of returning and new dishes at the Holiday Kitchens. If you are looking for the food offerings at Disney California Adventure Park, then take a look below.

· Aunt Cass Café will offer Christmas Tree Pull-apart Sourdough Bread, Mickey-shaped Gingerbread Cookie, Milk and Cookies Cold Brew, etc.

· At Corn Dog Castle, one can find Peppermint Hot Chocolate and Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate which are the new entries.

· Flo’s V8 Café is going to have Hatch Chili Burger, Hamilton Family, Cactus Jack Wheat Ale, Seaborn, Pomegranate Margarita served over ice, Unsung Brewing Co. St. Nick R. Doodle, Imperial Blonde Ale, among others.

· Hollywood Lounge has options like Kinderpunsch with apple cider, hibiscus, and a cherry, Holiday Margarita, Sugar Cookie Cocktail, etc.

· Lamplight Lounge will have Holiday Half Chicken, Prime Rib, Java Martini, Two Towns – Cosmic Crisp Cider, among other delicacies.

The bulk of new offerings this season were concentrated at Disney Springs. While this shopping and dining area offers a robust selection of restaurants, most holiday visitors focus on snacks within the parks and resorts, where they spend the majority of their time.

Springs' extensive menu is ideal for locals who frequent the area, but it doesn’t fully cater to guests prioritizing park-based holiday experiences. The limited holiday menu items within the parks felt similar to the exclusive Magic Kingdom offerings for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party compared to regular days.
