Even though the calendar has only just turned to September, Disneyland Resort is already seeing signs of the upcoming holiday season. Fans sharing footage online have spotted trucks delivering snowy building decor, suggesting that the parks are gearing up for Christmas festivities much earlier than usual.
Some Disney enthusiasts have expressed mixed feelings about the early arrival of holiday decor. “It’s the first day of September and Christmas is already incoming at Disneyland!” one fan commented online, echoing a sentiment shared by several park-goers who feel that the fall season, particularly Halloween, should get its spotlight first.

Disney Looks to Christmas
Despite the early deliveries, Disneyland has confirmed that the Christmas decorations will not go up immediately. Instead, the festive setup will begin right after Halloween celebrations conclude, ensuring a smooth transition from spooky to sparkling across the parks.
The decorations being brought in already include iconic holiday staples such as snow-dusted facades, garlands, and wreaths that will eventually line Main Street, U.S.A., and other park areas. Cast members will work carefully to ensure each piece is placed perfectly, maintaining the immersive holiday atmosphere that Disneyland is known for.
The Holiday Season is Nearing
For many fans, seeing the early arrivals is a reminder of how much planning and preparation goes into transforming the parks for the holidays. From parade floats to themed merchandise displays, each element must be ready in advance to ensure guests experience the “Happiest Holiday Season on Earth” from day one.
With the holiday season at Disneyland typically featuring themed overlays, festive parades, and seasonal treats, fans can expect the snowy decor and other Christmas touches to be in full effect soon after the Halloween season ends.
For now, park-goers can catch glimpses of the preparations on social media, giving Disney fans a peek behind the scenes at how the resort transforms for the holidays—months before guests can officially experience the seasonal magic.
