I liked that Santa & Reindeer & didn't realize it was new last year, I'm glad we got some pictures with it.
I haven't kept up to speed on the frozen invasion of that area - are we to also expect another Elsa & Anna meet n greet in DCA????

MiceAge has been reporting for a while that, as of December 20th, Hollywood Land will be taken over by Frozen, complete with a Frozen sing-along, a meet & greet, an indoor ice rink and "real snow" and whatever else. It has been only a rumor, but various signs seem to indicate that it might happen.
Yes -- all of the decorations in Hollywood Land last year were brand new.
Sherry, I also think that's interesting. I hope they aren't leaving Christmas decorations down and are planning to do something that really doesn't start until 12/20! That would stink for those of us traveling earlier. I look forward to more reports from the park!
And thanks for the info on the VN characters. We'll just have to head over and start asking questions.

Looking at
Misskitty3's photos it appears that some random strands of garland are up on the HL facades, but those circular Santa and star signs don't appear to be attached to the poles and trees as they were last year (I didn't see them in the photos), and there is no Santa/reindeer display at the end of the street.
I am guessing that that specific spot will be a Frozen photo spot of some sort, and it may have been too much trouble to put Santa up there when he'd only have to come down by 12/20.

I would rather have Santa there for the first month+ of the season that not have him there at all.

Thanks! I had actually planned on mentioning that here later today, as I had announced the details and dates of the Workshop quite a while back and figured that people had forgotten. I have the dates for it in the second post on page 1, but it's also good (for reference) to show them
this Downtown Disney post, which includes a link to
figment_ji''s photos of the Workshop, so people can see what it entails.
