Jungle Cruise Just Got a HUGE Change in Magic Kingdom – But It's Only for a Limited Time

We’re wearing our Santa hats and singing down Main Street, U.S.A., in Magic Kingdom because one of our favorite parts of the holidays is back.

The Jingle Cruise is back!

The Jungle Cruise in Adventureland goes through a huge transformation to turn into the Jingle Cruise, filling the attraction with Christmas themes and, more importantly, holiday jokes! Let’s check out the ride for 2025.

The Jingle Cruise starts on November 3rd and runs until around the end of the holiday season, close to December 31st. If this is on your “must-do” list, we recommend seeing it from November 3rd to December 25th to ensure it’s up.

Here we go!

The line for this overlay is also usually really long! It might be a great time to grab a Lightning Lane Multi Pass and choose this as one of your first attractions, or be willing to wait in line for a few hours to experience it.

The skippers went overboard with the decorations!

Disney truly decks the halls at the Jingle Cruise! The queue is all decked out with decorations and hidden details to find.

Hung with care

The boats have some fun names, too. Make sure you check to see which boat you’re climbing into before you enter.

Fun names!

We’re not going to spoil the entire ride, but make sure you’re taking a look at the scenes, especially the ones on land, and keep your ears open for new jokes from your skipper.

New signs

This overlay is available all day long, not just for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, so if you are going to a party, you might want to visit the attraction during the daytime so you’re not missing out on precious party time.

Hehe

If you love a good holiday overlay (hey, that rhymed!), you should also check out Living with the Land in EPCOT, which turns into Glimmering Greenhouses and is lined with thousands of lights throughout the attraction.

Even Figment likes to get into the season! Journey into Imagiontion with Figment has a very tiny change, but once you see it, it’s going to turn into a holiday tradition. When you’re learning about sound, check out what Figment is wearing when he pops out of the speaker.

He’s very festive now

It’s so early in the holiday season, and we have so much to share, so make sure you keep following Disney Food Blog for more Disney fun.
