Disney Christmas Movie Essentials
We’ll start with the essential Disney Christmas movies you need to have in your collection!
Mickey's Christmas Carol
We’ve got to start with the Mouse himself. Mickey’s Christmas Carol is the quintessential combination of Mickey and the holiday season.
Nightmare Before Christmas is an amazing holiday crossover that has won the hearts of many Disney fans. While you’ll occasionally find people who don’t love (or haven’t seen) it, these characters command the longest lines at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party for a reason.
Growing up, I adored The Muppet Christmas Carol. It’s a bit of a “deep pull” for this list, but the Muppets are a part of the Disney family, and their Christmas Carol is a fantastic film.
The Santa Clause is one of our favorite Christmas movies. It’s an instant classic, led by a great performance from Buzz Lightyear himself, Tim Allen. The sequels aren’t as good as the original, but we make it a point to catch these every holiday season.
Frozen isn’t technically a holiday film, but c’mon. It’s got snow and it’s one of the best movies Disney has produced in recent memory. It’s worth a watch during the holiday season.

Like any Disney experience, your Disney holiday should come with throwing out your finest pieces of Disney clothing!
Disney Men's Mickey Mouse Ugly Christmas Sweater
Ugly sweaters are a must have for any fun family Christmas. Grab one with Mickey Mouse on it!
Stitch is a fan-favorite for a reason. Bring him into your holiday festivities with this Santa Stitch sweater!
For women looking to bring Minnie into a cozy Christmas outfit, this sweater is the way to go.
Nightmare Before Christmas fans will love this Jack Skellington ugly sweater.
We wouldn’t leave the little ones out. This Santa Mickey pajama set is great for kids to wear as the run down the stairs to their gifts under the tree!
Decorating Your Disney Tree
People love, love, LOVE their Disney ornaments. These things are everywhere, but here are some to consider.
Walt Disney World 2018 Chip and Dale Mickey Mouse Ears Hat Christmas Ornament
This is a cute one with Chip and Dale dated to 2018 and with the added flare of the “Mouse Ears” everyone loves.
This is a standard set to consider if you’d like a few Disney Christmas classics at a decent price.
Mickey and Minnie Mouse Holiday Glass Drop Ornament 2018
This is a great standard option for lovers of
Groot Sketchbook Ornament - Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
Even the Guardians of the Galaxy are getting in on this holiday season.
Cinderella Castle Light-Up Ear Hat Ornament - Walt Disney World
I just love this one. It’s another hybrid that combines Cinderella Castle with Mickey Ears. This one just screams “I love Disney parks!” while it hangs on your tree.

This is a little much, but it’s also a really cool option if you’re into it. It’s a tabletop tree absolutely packed with Disney characters.
Have you heard? WALT LOVED TRAINS! This is a really cute way to bring Disney into the perfect holiday living room. Who doesn’t love a good train?
There are a couple ways to make a Disney holiday wreath, but if you want the maximum amount of Disney flare, you might decide to grab this “Magical” Christmas wreath.
“Disney Village” items are a cool way to theme your surfaces into Disney spaces. This ski chalet scream "Disney Christmas” in red and green glory!
Again, Frozen isn’t a “holiday” movie per se, but this is a beautiful addition to the Disney Village collection.
I like this one for having a sort of classical vibe. Santa has a more classic look, and he’s just sitting with Mickey and Minnie. This has that nice, old, cozy Christmas sort of vibe.
