What’s New at Jollywood Nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in 2025

Jollywood Nights is a separately ticketed event that’s offered at Disney’s Hollywood Studios during the Christmas holidays. You can expect an old Hollywood glam vibe combined with festive fun at each party. Party nights are offered on select evenings in November and December.

This is the third year of the seasonal holiday party hosted at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Even though the event is so young, you can still expect a few new things if you’ve attended either of the past two years. Below, we’ll discuss everything we know that’s new for Jollywood Nights in 2025 to date.

New at Jollywood Nights in 2025

Disney has shared a few sneak peeks of what’s new at Jollywood Nights this year. Per their announcement, guests can expect new bites, characters, and experiences. Here are the official things we know so far:

See Miguel at Holiday Fiesta en la Calle in a new location near Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith

Enter the park earlier than ever before, at 5:30 p.m., before Jollywood Nights starts

Enjoy two new shows at Hollywood Studios, “The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure” and “Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After”

Snack on the new Backlot Express Restaurant specialty menu (more details to come soon)

A new Jollywood Nights merch collection will premiere soon (did someone wish for a spirit jersey?)

I can only imagine that being able to enter the party with a ticket at 5:30 p.m. will be a huge benefit for guests who want to arrive early, later, or at their leisure! For more on Jollywood Nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you might enjoy the following:
