Disneyland\u2019s holiday season runs from\u00a0November 14, 2025, to January 7, 2026, and includes events like the \u201cBelieve\u2026 In Holiday Magic\u201d fireworks, \u201cA Christmas Fantasy Parade,\u201d holiday overlays for attractions like \u201cit\u2019s a small world\u201d and Haunted Mansion, and the festive \u201cDisney Festival of Holidays\u201d at Disney California Adventure.<\/p>\n

For starters, don\u2019t let a little rain stop you from visiting because they got you covered \u2013 literally! Disney\u2019s friends were adorned in Disney themed parkas that can be purchased at the park and come in sizes for all. Don\u2019t be surprised if it happens to rain on your parade because out of an abundance of caution, both parks will modify their parade schedules if necessary.<\/p>\n
