It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas and this year the Disney Parks are celebrating with the Disney Parks Frozen Christmas Celebration on December 25!

This all-new holiday parade event will feature performance and parades from the Magic Kingdom at the Walt Disney World Resort, Disneyland Park, and Aulani. You can catch this year’s holiday special at 10 a.m. ET on ABC on Christmas morning.

In other Disney food news there’s going to be a new character meal at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Tusker House – already a fan favorite for its breakfast and lunch character meals – will be the home of Donald’s Safari Dinner starting in March!

And since it’s the end of the holiday shopping season we have a few merchandise-related news items. First, there’s an all-new line of graphic retail MagicBands available at Walt Disney World. The collection includes a Sorcerer Mickey band, a Minnie Mouse-inspired band, and a Disney Princess band.
