Disney Opens Reservations for Limited Jollywood Nights Experience This September
Guests heading to Disney Jollywood Nights this holiday season will soon be able to lock in one of the event’s more exclusive experiences.
Disney has revealed when reservations will become available for Jazzy Holidays at The Hollywood Brown Derby. The returning offering gives party guests a place to escape the busier areas of Disney’s Hollywood Studios for food, cocktails and live holiday music.
But simply purchasing a Jollywood Nights ticket won’t guarantee you a spot.
A Limited Experience Returns
Jazzy Holidays at The Hollywood Brown Derby returns during select Jollywood Nights events beginning November 7, 2026.
This year’s run continues through January 5, 2027, matching the expanded Jollywood Nights season that extends beyond New Year’s Day for the first time.
Reservations open September 17.
Disney says space is limited, making advance reservations particularly important for guests who consider this experience a priority.
Unlike some of the larger entertainment offerings around the park, Jazzy Holidays creates a more intimate setting. Guests can sit down inside the famous Hollywood Brown Derby and enjoy live piano music while ordering from a special menu.
Disney Is Changing the Menu for the Night
The regular Hollywood Brown Derby menu won’t be available during Jazzy Holidays.
Instead, Disney has created a menu specifically for the event.
Food selections include Jazzy Sliders featuring bison and pork with onion jam and Gorgonzola cheese. Chorizo Arancini, Pork Belly Bao, Tofu Bao and Char-grilled Chicken Yakitori are among the other announced choices.
Disney will also serve specialty cocktails.
The Cranberry-Jalapeño Margarita combines Flecha Azul Reposado Tequila with Cointreau, lime juice and house-made cranberry-jalapeño simple syrup.
Disney hasn’t revealed every menu detail yet, so more choices could be announced closer to November.
Guests Will Need Two Separate Reservations and Tickets
Booking Jazzy Holidays doesn’t replace the need for a Jollywood Nights ticket.
Guests must purchase admission to Disney Jollywood Nights separately, with 2026 tickets ranging between $169 and $199 per person, plus tax.
Anything ordered at The Hollywood Brown Derby also costs extra and isn’t included in the party ticket.
That’s worth considering when building a budget for the evening, particularly for families or larger groups.
September 17 Becomes an Important Planning Date
Jollywood Nights already asks guests to make choices about how they spend their limited party time.
Adding Jazzy Holidays creates another decision. Some guests may prefer squeezing in as many attractions and shows as possible. Others may happily give up part of their evening for cocktails, food and a slower-paced holiday atmosphere.
Those interested in the latter now have their next important date.
Reservations for Jazzy Holidays open September 17, giving guests their first opportunity to secure a spot before Disney Jollywood Nights returns November 7.
