Christmas at Hollywood Studios is starting to be 1 of my favorites. The new Toy Story Land will have Christmas decorations up. The statues throughout the land will have a holiday overlay as well as the rides. There will be a special Christmas meet and greets within Toy Story Land as well. And we can’t forget the Christmas music playing! Lasers will also be added to Tower of Terror They will be added to the top and midsection for the Sunset Blvd Holiday Show. There will be 4 sets of multicolored lasers. They are designed to light up the show. 2 additional lasers will be hidden to focus on the tower for projection to outline and dazzle parts of the Hollywood Hotel.

Santa Goofy will be returning to the Once Upon A Time store. There will also be a Christmas version of the Frozen sing-along show. And Echo Lake will have 3 times more Christmas decorations this year!
