According to the reservation calendar, Walt Disney World Annual Passholders can no longer make park reservations for Magic Kingdom on Christmas Day, December 25, 2024.


The holiday date has reached capacity for passholders, though reservations remain open for all other parks, including EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Reservations for Magic Kingdom are still available for guests staying at Disney resorts or those with regular theme park tickets. However, passholders hoping to visit Magic Kingdom will need to look to the other parks unless reservations reopen at a later time. Passholders may also be able to park hop to enter Magic Kingdom.

In addition, New Year's Eve, December 31, 2024, is now fully booked for Magic Kingdom for both resort guests and regular theme park tickets. This is typically one of the busiest days of the year at Walt Disney World, as crowds gather to ring in the new year with special entertainment and fireworks. Interestingly, annual passholders are still available on this date at Magic Kingdom.

Securing your park passes early remains the key if you're planning a holiday visit to Magic Kingdom. Keep an eye on the reservation system for potential changes, as availability may fluctuate in the coming weeks.

    That’s…special. Should’ve come down when Festival of the Holidays ended.

    EPCOT still has holiday decor up today on day one of Festival of the Arts.

    Can't. They first need to have the brand-new Mickey's Egg-stravaganza Easter parties, followed by the debuting Mickey's Summer-tastic Party. Only then can they think about Halloween parties in early August.

    EPCOT today still has the American Adventure Tree and most its its entrance and World Showcase decor up. It is going to be a busy night tonight!

    Not Halfway to Halloween. Halfway to Halfway to Halloween. That should be like right now! They should have parties!

    They have in the past (though not last year, I don’t think). Some years, there were even special treats that week in April.

    Perhaps they’re just a little early for Christmas 2025.

    And the Christmas music is still playing.

    Christmas Tree is still up at Animal Kingdom as of Jan 16

    Lol, well a lot more would be better if WDW was like Tokyo lol, but anyway. It is a shame WDW doesn’t do more for Easter.
