More details for the Cinderella Castle transformation moment, “Frozen Holiday Surprise,” as well as showtimes have been released for Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World.
Frozen Holiday Surprise Details and Showtimes
Nightly at Magic Kingdom starting November 7 (and twice nightly during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party nights), guests can join Olaf and over 100 of his snowgie siblings as they transform Cinderella Castle with garlands, ornaments, and wreaths.
After that, Anna, Elsa, and Kristoff will arrive onstage, dressed in new, festive costumes. The transformation will be complete once Elsa adds the finishing touches with her ice magic, turning Cinderella Castle into an ice palace — presumably inspired by Elsa’s Ice Palace located on the North Mountain in the 2013 film.
Guests will be able to see this castle show moment nightly at 6:15 p.m., with a second showing at 8:15 p.m. on Christmas Party nights.
Though not directly inspired by “Frozen,” the Cinderella Castle Dream Lights package previously illuminated the Magic Kingdom structure with snow and icicle imagery. The chilly package ran from 2007 to 2019, and Elsa was implemented into the show during its later years.
Christmas at Magic Kingdom
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, a separately ticketed event at Magic Kingdom, will take place on select nights from November 9 through December 22; select nights are already sold out.
Offerings at the party include Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks, Mickey’s Most Merriest Celebration stage show in front of Cinderella Castle, Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, and the aforementioned “Frozen Holiday Surprise,” which will also be viewable for guests on nights the party isn’t offered. Showtimes for these offerings were just released, you can read more here.
