Storybook Circus Is Getting Ready For NEW Santa Meet-and-Greet During Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party

The first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party of 2024 is taking place at Magic Kingdom tonight, and we here at MickeyBlog could not be more excited!

Over the past couple of days, we have seen the Magic Kingdom come alive with holiday cheer and festive decor. Now, in just a few hours, it will be time to celebrate!

For those who don’t know, on select nights, Magic Kingdom transforms into a winter wonderland brimming with Disney holiday magic for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party.

Guests can experience rare character meet-and-greets, watch the Once Upon a Christmastime Parade, and take in Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks.

The party also gives guests the opportunity to meet Santa Claus himself! This year, however, old St. Nick is meeting in a new location — Storybook Circus!

Here Comes Santa Claus

While Santa has yet to arrive for tonight’s festivities, Storybook Circus is ready for Kris Kringle to visit!

With just hours to go until Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party kicks off, Storybook Circus is decked out in festive decor.

A large sign advertises that guests can meet Santa in Storybook Circus, where there is happy holiday fun for everyone.

This year, the Santa meet and greet will be held under the large tent in the back of Storybook Circus.

A sign out front welcomes guests to Santa’s Christmas Carnival! I love how on-brand the sign is for the land.

Here is a look inside the tent, where Santa himself will soon hold court.

As you can see, there is plenty of Christmas decor, in addition to a Christmas tree backdrop.

There is also plenty of seating.

Meeting Santa Claus in Storybook Circus will certainly be a unique experience! I can’t wait for the festive fun to kick off tonight!
