At night, the Sleeping Beauty Castle is lit up with a dazzling display of over 50,000 lights and is used as the back drop to the fireworks show (below). It is such a beautiful winter display that is illuminated every night, this is one of the most magical sights during Christmas time at Disneyland!

Disneyland Holidays are even more magical with the special Believe… In Holiday Magic fireworks show. It is dazzling like you’ve never seen before, using the infamous Sleeping Beauty Castle as a backdrop. After this spectacular show, Southern Californians are delighted with a special surprise – SNOW! Yes, as you’re watching the fireworks show finale, snow begins to lightly descend on Main Street, wowing guests. It also snows near It’s A Small World and Rivers of America.

If you’re heading down Route 66 to get to Radiator Springs, you will be met with Christmas cheer along the way! Look up, because you’ll see festive tire wreaths and garland, as well as tons of other holiday decor. They have alsoĀ transformedĀ two holiday themed attractions in Cars Land – Luigi’s Joy To The Whirl, and Mater’s Jingle Jamboree. I think Cars Land is the best in all of Disney’s California Adventure!
