Disneyland Paris Christmas Parade 2025
A fan favorite will be returning this year, Mickey’s Dazzling Christmas Parade. This holiday parade first debuted a few years ago. And a few years ago, it won the Brass Ring Award for Most Creative Christmas/Holiday Show 2022, which is given out by The International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA).
The Christmas parade features festive floats, a catchy song (“Shine a Light!”), and popular characters like Mickey Mouse, Pluto, Tinker Bell, Disney Princesses and more. You can even see Santa Claus himself!
The twenty minute long Christmas parade takes place twice a day, which allows you to enjoy both a daytime and nighttime version.
Disneyland Paris Christmas Show
Also back this year is Let’s Sing Christmas!, an upbeat Christmas show at Videopolis Theater (located in Discoveryland). Sing some of your favorite holiday carols along with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, and Daisy. And one of the highlights is “All I Want for Christmas is Mickey,” as performed by Minnie Mouse!
Disney Characters
Celebrate Christmas with some of your favorite Disney characters! Check the Disneyland Paris app for times for the following experiences.
