Holidays Arrive Early At Disneyland

ANAHEIM (CBSLA.com) — It's the most wonderful time of the year at the Happiest Place on Earth.

"Holidays at the Disneyland Resort" launched Friday, including "A Christmas Fantasy" parade at Disneyland and "World of Color – Winter Dreams" at Disney California Adventure.

Even though it's not quite Thanksgiving, wreaths, ornaments and twinkling LED lights were out in full force Friday at Disneyland's most popular attractions, like the Snow White Castle, the Haunted Mansion and the Jungle Cruise.

Along with Mickey, Minnie and Goofy, Santa Claus will also be on hand to greet visitors at a new Disneyland location, Critter Country, and at Disney California Adventure, where there will be two versions of the "World of Color" show and a wintry play area inspired by the "Frozen" kingdom of Arendelle, including real snow.

Other holiday touches at Disney California Adventure include "Disney Viva Navidad," a celebration of Latino culture with music, dances and food; holiday decorations at each address in Cars Land, reflecting the personalities of the "Cars" character who lives there; and giant Christmas lights and ornaments at "A Bug's Land."

"Holidays at the Disneyland Resort" will run through Jan. 6. Admission to either park is $99 for children and adults 10 and over and $93 for children 3 to 9 years old. A "Park Hopper" ticket for admission to both parks is an additional $40.
