If you have been reading along here at MickeyBlog this week, you know that it is beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Walt Disney World.
With just days to go until the first Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party of 2025, Magic Kingdom has come alive with holiday magic.

So far this week, we have seen Christmas decor arrive, a preview of Disney World’s holiday treats, and an update on the resort’s upcoming gingerbread creations.

Finally, there is Jingle Cruise.
Jingle Cruise Has Returned
Yesterday, the merriest cruise to ever set sail returned to Magic Kingdom for a festive journey down the world’s rivers.

As we previously reported, the seasonal attraction looks better than ever, and even features a new prop!

Needless to say, guests are excited about the return of Jingle Cruise.

As they say, however, all good things must come to an end.
When Will Jungle Cruise Come Back?
Previously, Disney had teased that Jungle Cruise would return in early 2026.
