Magic Kingdom visitors can catch a bit of early holiday magic tonight as "Frozen Holiday Surprise" begins its run ahead of schedule. Originally set to debut on November 12, Disney has opted to bring the seasonal spectacle to guests starting this evening, November 5.

According to the My Disney Experience app, tonight's "Frozen Holiday Surprise" will begin at 6:15 pm. On Friday, the opening night of Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, there will be two performances, at 6:15 pm and again at 8:15 pm, exclusively for partygoers.

The projection-based stage show begins when Olaf and over 100 of his snowgie siblings add garlands, ornaments, wreaths, and more to Cinderella Castle.

Next, Anna, Elsa and Kristoff appear on stage with Olaf—all decked out in their holiday best. The festivities culminate as Elsa adds the finishing touches with her ice magic, transforming Cinderella Castle into a shimmering crystallized palace.

You're entitled to your opinion, no matter how wrong it is.

Once they switch on the Christmas music at DHS, it has the best Christmas feel at WDW.

No tree at Studios yet, but the vast majority of the decor is in place now.

I like the new SSE lights. I can be right next to SSE and look at all the lights turned up to the brightest and it doesn't hurt my eyes. Maybe I have cataracts.

Yep, I am. Because I have taste. The pucks absolutely ruin the architectural beauty of SSE at night. But... lights!!! Ooo!! Ahh!!!

Yeah I was thinking last year it was an install issue, but it's still there again which makes me think now it's a structural issue with the tree. It is long overdue for a replacement, so come on Disney, make it happen for 2025.

Not exactly holiday related, but they are running 6:30pm Fantasmics on Jollywood nights. Very nice option for those traveling with young children.

Are you talking about the Beacons of Magic lights on SSE? Because if so, you are in the vast minority. They're beautiful and I love seeing SSE lit up at night with them. It's one of the best atmosphere things they did for the 50th and I'm glad they stayed.
