How to buy tickets to Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios.

Debuting in Hollywood Studios in 2023, Jollywood Nights is the Christmas party where holiday cheer meets Hollywood Glam! More grown-up than Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, this sophisticated affair has improved year on year.

This event takes place on select nights throughout November and December 2025 (see exact dates below) and, as such, tickets are very limited. Prices range from $159 to $199 plus tax for adults (children’s tickets come in at $10 less for those aged between 3 and 9) and become more expensive at weekends and as Christmas approaches.

The Party officially starts at 7pm and things draw to a close at 12.30am, but you can enter Hollywood Studios from 5:30pm to enjoy any attractions that won’t be available during the Party (see the list below of participating rides) or to have dinner before the festivities begin. If you wish to go in earlier, you’ll need a Park ticket.

IMPORTANT FOR UK AND IRELAND GUESTS

Christmas Party tickets cannot be purchased on the UK website or the app; instead:

  • Use an approved third-party official seller (such as FloridaTix or Attraction Tickets), which may offer special deals once tickets go on sale.
  • You can also use a VPN to buy tickets through the US website or wait until you arrive in the US, but you run the risk of tickets having sold out with this last option.

Party Dates for 2025:

November:          8th, 15th, 17th, 22nd, 24th and 29th

December:          1st, 6th, 10th, 13th, 17th, 20th and 22nd/i

  • Using the Disney PhotoPass Service will help you best capture the sparkling décor and photo-worthy spots dotted all around Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Keep an eye out for Ollie the (Jolly) Gingerbread Man.

On Party nights you can also enjoy some of your favourite rides with shorter wait times!

Please note, the entertainment options, attractions and experiences on offer are subject to change. 

Anyone wanting to see Fantasmic!, Hollywood Studio’s fabulous musical with pyrotechnics and stunts, will be happy to know the show’s start time is brought forward to 6:30pm on event nights, so you can enjoy it before the Party starts!

It’s worth checking Disney’s Policy on appropriate attire and costumes at these events before you go.
