As Disneyland Paris prepares to kick off the Disney Enchanted Christmas 2025 season, there’s already an important change for guests planning to watch Mickey’s Dazzling Christmas Parade, the reserved viewing area has been relocated this year.
In 2024, the paid viewing section was placed right in the middle of Central Plaza, surrounded by the four show stop stages. While it offered great views, it also sparked a lot of criticism from Disney fans and others. Many felt that this prime location should remain freely accessible.
A New Location for 2025
For the 2025 Christmas season, the reserved viewing area will no longer be located in the center of Central Plaza. Instead, it’s been moved to the sidewalk near the Plaza Gardens Restaurant fountain, facing Central Plaza.
This new location is easier to access, especially for guests who arrive closer to parade time.
The Reserved Viewing Area for Mickey’s Dazzling Christmas Parade is priced from €21 per person (no discounts available). Bookings open November 4 via the Disneyland Paris app.
Parade and Show Details
Mickey’s Dazzling Christmas Parade returns on November 8, 2025 (replacing Disney Stars on Parade), with two performances per day, filling Main Street, U.S.A. and Central Plaza with holiday cheer, twinkling lights, and festive music.
In addition, the popular Festive Surprises mini-shows, featuring the same cast from Mickey’s Dazzling Christmas Parade, will also return starting November 15, 2025. These shorter shows will take place once a day in Disneyland Park, but no reserved viewing area will be available for them.
A week later the new Christmas Tree Lightning Ceremony debuts with Mickey and Friends, this means that the Christmas season this year kicks off in three parts.
