Disney Indirectly Announces Return of Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios
In 2023, Disney debuted a brand new holiday party — and it looks like it may be returning again in 2024.

Jollywood Nights
Disney Jollywood Nights took place on select nights during the holiday season in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and it required a separate admission ticket to experience all the exclusive holiday fun throughout the park.

Jollywood Nights
Given that it was a brand new holiday offering, we weren’t sure whether it would return in 2024 — but it seems that Disney has kind of indirectly confirmed its return through a casting notice!

Despite the “all-new stage show” reference, however, it appears that they may be specifically looking for dancers for the Disney Holidays in Hollywood show that took place at the Theater of the Stars in 2023.

This variety show featured characters such as Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Princess Tiana, Belle, Minnie, and Mickey, who along with dancers performed several skits and musical numbers.
Of course, they could be changing elements of the show, but we’ll have to wait to check it out later this year!
