PHOTOS: Santa and His Reindeer Have Officially Arrived in Disney's Hollywood Studios

The holidays have officially begun in Disney World and Hollywood Studios is looking quite festive!

Hollywood Studios Christmas Tree

The Christmas tree is up, the red and silver stars are lining Sunset Boulevard, and garland is practically everywhere. There was one holiday attraction missing from the park, however…until NOW!

The holiday motorcade is BACK in Hollywood Studios! The dancing elves were once again paving the way for the guest of honor, who you can probably guess. The motorcade travels all the way down Hollywood Boulevard.

The Holiday Cavalcade!

The elves were dressed in festive red and green, and they had ribbons and presents. Also, we saw SNOAP (snow + soap, or Disney’s version of snow) coming from machines on top of Hollywood Boulevard shops! It was a nice touch.

Elves

Trailing behind the elves were two reindeer and Pluto, who as also wearing reindeer antlers!

PLUTO!

The reindeer seemed to be having a holly-jolly time.

Reindeer!

And finally, Santa Claus made his big entrance…in a red convertible! No sleigh here, folks.

SANTA!

His sleigh…ahem, convertible…has a green letter “s” on the side and some other festive decorations, like garland and presents. You can catch the Santa Claus Motorcade several times a day, so make sure you keep your eyes and ears open so you can catch Santa!

Is the convertible an upgrade?
