Last year, there were a bunch of things happening over at Disneyland Resort, like Disney Merriest Nites, the Candlelight Processional, and the holiday parade! While we’re still waiting for confirmation on some of those events, we DO know that the Festival of Holidays will be returning over in Disney California Adventure Park. And now, we have the official DATES of the festival!

Festival of Holidays will take place from November 11, 2022, to January 8, 2023!

Disneyland has also announced that the Sip and Savor Pass will be returning this year. Nightly holiday concerts will also be happening at the Palisades Stage in Paradise Gardens.

This festival celebrates the holiday season with special entertainment, music, food, and more. Last year, there were 9 Festive Marketplace Booths along with eats and drinks at some additional locations around Disney California Adventure.

The Festival of Holidays also usually features a holiday version of the nighttime spectacular, World of Color — Season of Light. World of Color officially returned this past April, and Season of Light will be returning this holiday season.
