❄️ Fractal Frenzy: NEW Frozen Holiday Surprise at Magic Kingdom Park

At Magic Kingdom Park, “Frozen” friends from Arendelle are conjuring up something new and extra-special for the holidays.

Join in the celebration of the new “Frozen Holiday Surprise” as Olaf and more than 100 of his Snowgie siblings decorate Cinderella Castle with festive touches. Appearing live on stage in new holiday looks, Anna, Elsa, Olaf and Kristoff each bring something special to the gathering. Festivities culminate as Elsa adds sparkling finishing touches, transforming Cinderella Castle into a shimmering crystallized palace – a look that will remain throughout the evening.

Debuting Nov. 7, “Frozen Holiday Surprise” will occur nightly throughout the holiday season.

It’s NOT too late to experience a Disney Christmas, and there are even a few promotions available to make it possible. Contact me today to get started—there is no time to waste!

I am so sad that we are postponing our December trip but it’s not too late for you to book yours!

Prepare for upload to the grid…

42 years ago, TRON came out and forever changed the way audiences experienced movies. Disney made filmmaking history, with TRON being the first production of its kind to mix live action with computer-generated visuals and backlit animation.

Earlier this year, TRON Lightcycle / Run opened in Tomorrowland at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom and has become an immediate favorite amongst thrill-seekers and fans of futuristic, beautiful views alike. Feel your heart race as you zoom through the grid on your own lightcycle. This cutting-edge coaster will leave you breathless. Hold on tight as you experience exhilarating twists, turns, and jaw-dropping speeds that will transport you into the heart of TRON’s digital realm.
