Disney has revealed new details about this year's Disney Jollywood Nights, a 5 hour-long holiday event taking place at Disney's Hollywood Studios from November 9 to December 21, 2024.

The event promises exclusive entertainment, unique experiences, and limited-capacity access to popular attractions. One of the main highlights for 2024 is the debut of a new skating show, "Glisten!" set to take place multiple times each evening.

The new skating show, "Glisten!" will feature international champion skaters performing intricate routines to a mix of holiday music and beloved Disney songs such as "Be Our Guest" and "When You Wish Upon A Star." Showtimes are 8:15 pm, 9:15 pm, 10:30 pm, 11:15 pm and 12:15 am.

Also new for this year's event, a Pixar-themed dance party will be held, featuring characters like Joy, Frozone, and Edna Mode. Additionally, the popular Latin-inspired Holiday Fiesta en la Calle dance party has moved to Animation Courtyard, with new appearances by José Carioca and Panchito from The Three Caballeros.

Other additions to Disney Jollywood Nights for 2024 include new character photo opportunities. Visitors to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge will have the chance to meet The Mandalorian, while Toy Story Land will feature characters like Bo Peep and Lotso. Additionally, Santa Stitch and Santa Duffy will be available for meet-and-greets in festive attire. Complete List of Characters Appearing at Disney Jollywood Nights 2024.

Didn't they sell out last year even with the disastrous first night? The skating show was added to Jollywood before tickets went on sale, so, I don't see the cause and effect that you're seeing.

They keep boasting all of these special characters, but it's pretty much characters you can meet anytime. Fineas and Ferb were "special" appearances for the H2O Glow party. The Pixar dance party lists characters you can meet any other day in Hollywood Studios. I wish they brought out actual unique characters, like the Alberto and Luca from the DL Pixarfest. That being said, the Kermit and Piggy show as well as the nightmare sing along sound like top notch entertainment. How was the Tip Top Club last year?

I was really hoping they'd add a bit more to this event in the vein of ride overlays. You have Rise, Smuggler's Run, Star Tours, Runaway Railway, and Toy Storia Mania that are all screen-based rides that should be able to be switched to a holiday theme fairly easy (I know there are costs to make the overlays). I was really hoping to hear they'd be having some holiday overlays for Jollywood this year.

Anyone else get the feeling tickets haven’t been selling that well?

I'm probably reading into this too much but in one of the photos posted on Instagram for jingle bell jingle bam it has large shell fireworks. Are they coming back this year or is it just an old photo for this.

Oh yeah, I grew up on that with a frozen vegetable medley mixed in. Hamburger cheese noodles, we called it.

Will it have ground beef in it? NGL Mac and cheese + ground beef is a staple around here lol

Because they know people will book it anyway. They can serve standard mac & cheese and people will still book for the "exclusivity" of it.

Not if you attended any of last years dumpster fire "events" Take the money and run.

It is a little bizarre that ADR slots opened up but you can't see the menu yet.
