Disney Springs Lights Town Center Tree and Launches Ticket‑Free Holiday Program

The district opened seasonal experiences that let visitors enjoy decorated trees, nightly snowfall, Santa and themed food without a park ticket.

Overview

  • A public Town Center tree lighting this week featured Walt Disney World ambassadors, a family on stage, live music and snowfall to mark the start of Disney Springs’ holiday season.
  • The AdventHealth Christmas Tree Stroll is live through January 3, 2027, with 20 displays including three new trees (Bluey, Monsters, Inc., and a Hallmark tree) and free maps and sticker sheets that can be redeemed for a prize.
  • Santa meet‑and‑greets run from Santa’s Marketplace using the My Disney Experience virtual queue and require guests to be on site to join the queue through the app.
  • Town Center will present nightly snowfall and a special tree lighting every hour on the hour while restaurants and shops offer seasonal tie‑ins, including Jock Lindsey’s holiday menu through January 11, 2027.
  • Because Disney Springs requires no park admission or ticket, the offerings give locals and non‑park visitors easy access to resort holiday programming and promotional pop‑ups such as the Hallmark shop.
