In addition to Christmas shopping, Disney Springs at Walt Disney World will have its returning Christmas Tree Stroll, nightly snowfall, live entertainment, and a Santa Claus meet and greet.
Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll
A series of decorated Christmas trees inspired by Disney, Pixar, and “Star Wars” properties will be throughout Disney Springs for the Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll presented by AdventHealth. Disney confirmed the Haunted Mansion tree will return. Guests can usually pick up a complimentary map and sticker sheet to help them find each tree, and then redeem the map for a button prize.
Check out the 2024 Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll for an idea of what the trees might look like.
