 At Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Gertie the dinosaur is ready getting out her Santa hat as she is dreaming of the Christmas tree on Echo Lake and the 2025 Jollywood Nights party. Which means - it is time for you to start planning your holiday Walt Disney World vacation and get your 2025 Jollywood Nights party tickets!

Jollywood Nights is a separately ticketed event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios that combines old Hollywood glam with festive fun this November and December. When you walk down Sunset Boulevard at Disney's Hollywood Studios during the 2025 holiday season it will feels like you're stepping into a Christmas movie! With silver garlands draping across the street, giant ornaments taking over the landscape, and glowing reindeer hanging from the lampposts - it is straight out of a retro holiday postcard. During Jollywood Nights, Hollywood Studios sparkles with festive performances, elegant décor, specialty food & drinks, exclusive entertainment, and lower ride wait times. 2025 Jollywood Nights Dates This year, the vintage holiday vibes at Jollywood Nights happen select nights from Nov. 8th to Dec. 22nd.  This year, party guests can enter Disney's Hollywood Studios at 5:30 p.m. - before the party kicks off at 7:30 p.m! This gives you two extra hours in the park to ride attractions; meet character or even dine at one of the restaurants! Once the party starts, you'll have up to five hours to jingle, all the way until 12:30 a.m.! 2025 Jollywood Nights Tickets Jollywood Nights is a limited capacity event, so you will want to purchase your tickets soon and well ahead of your travel dates.
