Christmas 2025 at Disney Resorts: Gingerbread Displays, Treat Shops, and More!

Here’s all the info about this year’s Disney resort gingerbread displays, pop-up holiday treat shops, and resort Christmas decorations!

Christmas Trees & Holiday Decorations

Every WDW resort has now been decorated for the holidays, and all resort Christmas trees are up! Everyone’s welcome to visit any resort to see the decorations, but be sure to arrive at the resort via Disney transportation (unless you have a reservation). The usual resort-hopping rules apply, and security is even more strict around the holidays, so be sure to make a good transportation plan before visiting. You can read the Resort-Hopping FAQs for more information.

Below, I’m adding photos and more details about any resorts offering extra holiday things that might be worth your time to visit (like gingerbread displays or pop-up holiday treat shops); anything beyond just the usual Christmas decorations and standard holiday treats.
