What to expect can only be based on the Christmas holiday seasons at WDW prior to the world-wide pandemic. In the past: Crowds/crowds/crowds, beautiful holiday decorations, special holiday themed treats, lots of Christmas joy, the Processional, Mickey's Christmas party, Osborne lights (until recently), resort hopping to see Christmas decorations, the Christmas Backyard Barbeque, , great New Year's celebrations (california Grill), late nights and early morning rope drops, cast members full of the holiday spirit, special parades, fun with friends/family, and memories for a lifetime. PS. Weather that may be really warm or really cold!! Covid will not impact this. Have a great time on your visit.
