The new event coincides with the park’s 50th anniversary, making it a "once in a lifetime" experience for park-goers, according to the Disney Blog.
"We are so excited to let you know that ‘Disney Very Merriest After Hours’ will include the nighttime spectacular ‘Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks’ and the special holiday-themed parade ‘Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade'," the blog explained.
Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse will be joined by other Disney favorites like the gang from Frozen.
Santa Claus is also expected to make an appearance.
As only a limited number of tickets will be permitted, the park will be continuing with social distances practices.
