How long will Christmas decorations remain up at resorts/parks?

Not trying to rush the season, but we're planning a week long trip starting Jan. 4. Is there a chance some of the decorations will still be up? Curious as I've seen differing bits of info from previous years.

A lot of decorations remain up through marathon weekend, which is January 7-11, 2026, so you should see a lot of them. Typically the first things to go will be any decorations associated with food or entertainment that have already ended, such as resort gingerbread displays and festival booths at Epcot. I have arrived on MLK weekend and still found some decorations up, but they were pretty much all gone by the following weekend.

Our experience has been that the Christmas decorations at the parks will remain up the longest. We have seen them up until after the marathon. But the resort decorations start coming down right after New Year's Day.

I think World Showcase is usually among the last to go.

Last year the Showcase Christmas stayed up through January 17!

I think that may have been the longest they've stayed up-it overlapped the first day of Festival of the Arts!

Holiday decorations thread a lot of the dates are tracked here for when decorations go up, but there are also some reports of when decorations have come down -- last year some resorts removed decorations as early as 1/2, but others didn't come down until 1/10. So it's possible the resort may still be decorated, and it's very likely as mentioned above that you'll see decorations around the parks!
