There is a LOT to look forward to in 2023.
The Disney100 celebrations are kicking off, TRON Lightcycle Run is scheduled to open, Journey of Water in EPCOT is set to premiere, and plenty more exciting changes are on their way!
But before we can usher in any of these events, we need to say goodbye to 2022. If you can’t make it to the parks to celebrate there are still ways to enjoy some of that Disney excitement at home. Here are some tips on how to DIY a Disney World New Year’s Eve!
Decorate Your Home
Disney World always goes all-out when it comes to decorating the parks for any holiday. You can add some glitz to your home with a few pieces of easy decor! Check out this set that comes with banners, balloons, and food decorations.
The black and gold theme is perfect for a New Year’s party. Mickey, Minnie, and the Fantasyland Castle are all featured in the decorations. This is an easy way to quickly turn your every day home into a party zone! Get this set on Amazon for $13.99.

Enjoy Some Champagne
What kind of New Year’s party is it without champagne (or sparkling grape juice)? Be ready to pop the bottle at midnight by setting out some perfectly-themed glasses.
The JoyJolt Disney Mickey Mouse Squad Collection Tumblers are an adorable set, perfect for any Disney party. Mickey, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto are each featured in this set of 4. After the party, use this set for picnics, dinner parties, or any evening when you’re feeling like you need a little bit of Disney. Get the entire set for $22.90, originally $44.95.

Watch A Nighttime Spectacular
One of the parts of the evening most people look forward to is the evening show in the parks. From fireworks to mesmerizing light and sound displays, we love to see all of the nighttime spectaculars!
You can watch several different shows on Disney+, including Harmonious, which will be occurring at 6:30 PM on New Year’s Eve in EPCOT. Watch at the same time it’s happening in the parks, or time it so the show finishes right as the clock strikes midnight for an exciting start to 2023!
Play Disney Trivia
The 100th anniversary of the Walt Disney Company is in 2023, and with the Disney100 celebrations, many are taking time to look back on past Disney history. A fun activity for your New Year’s party could be a game of Disney trivia!
You can write your own questions yourself, or use a pre-made game like The Magical World of Disney Trivia. This game is filled with 2,000 questions covering all sorts of topics and includes cards of differing levels of difficulty to accommodate anyone who wants to play. You can find this on Amazon for $34.97, marked down from $44.99.
