Christmas Tree Trail at Disney Springs

February 21, 2020

During Disney’s Christmas season, you can find a forest of Disney themed trees at the Disney Spring’s Christmas Tree Trail. In addition to admiring the different trees, you can also enjoy snoap (snow soap), eat Christmas snacks and meet Santa Claus!

The Christmas Tree Trail is located at the Marketplace (behind Earl of Sandwich) and usually open early November to early January. This year it is open November 8, 2019, to January 5, 2020, every day from 11 am – 11 pm. Also, the best part is that it’s free! Allowing guests without park tickets a chance to experience Disney Christmas too!

 

The Trees

There are 22 Disney themed trees and each one is unique and incredible!

The snacks

Noelle Kringle’s Cafe can be found towards the beginning of the trail. There you can find the popcorn, holiday slushes and snacks like churro bites, pretzels, and cookies.

Elforium is located towards the middle of the trail. There you can find Christmas plush, accessories, ornaments and the largest cotton candy I’ve ever seen!

Meeting Santa

You can meet Santa inside the Christmas Tree Trail from November 8 to December 24th. There is a virtual queue system which means less time waiting in line. At the entrance of the Tree Trail, there is a podium to sign up to join the queue and then Santa’s helpers will notify you when it’s your time to return. In the meantime, you can eat and shop until your time is called. Once you are notified, you have 10 minutes to return to the podium.

I recommend signing up early during the day to meet Santa. On this day that we visited the Tree Trail, Santa’s visit was already at capacity around 3 pm.

The decor

As if the 22 decked out Christmas trees were not enough fun, I am a huge fan of the signs and decorations along the trail. There are so many clever Disney themed posters lining the walls in between the trees.

In conclusion, the Disney Springs Christmas Tree Trail has become an annual tradition of ours during the holidays and I recommend it to everyone who visits during the season!
