After exclusively meeting during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party for the past few weeks, Santa Claus will start meeting during the day at Magic Kingdom next week.

Magic Kingdom Santa Claus Meet and Greet

Disney has confirmed Santa Claus will start meeting Magic Kingdom day guests in Storybook Circus on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, November 27). They did not confirm an end date for the meet and greet, but all other Santa greetings run through Christmas Eve (Wednesday, December 24).

Santa meets in Storybook Circus as part of Santa’s Christmas Carnival during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. He also appears in Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade during the party, but the parade temporarily performed during the day for filming of the annual ABC Disney Parks Christmas special earlier this month and usually performs during the day the week of Christmas.

Watch our video of the daytime Christmas parade below.
