Disney4me Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 HAPPY HOLIDAYS from Disney’s Hollywood Studios!!! Moving Billboard on Sunset Boulevard From now through December 31st, guests can celebrate the season with a Flurry of FUN! Highlights include the return of the Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Holiday Spectacular, special seasonal touches around Echo Lake, and much more. We’re starting that “much more” with the all-new Sunset Seasons Greetings — and all the Season’s EATINGS — on Sunset Boulevard and beyond! Sunset Seasons Greetings Falling snow, twinkling lights, moving billboards, and festive projections on the Hollywood Tower Hotel all make for the magical transformation of Sunset Boulevard into Sunset Seasons Greetings! Projections on the Hollywood Tower Hotel Just taking in the atmosphere is enough to make the season special. Unlike the Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Spectacular which takes place at a scheduled time each evening, simply stroll onto Sunset Boulevard after the sun goes down (on this, the first night, things started around 6:15 pm). There you’re bound to catch the two-minute stories on the moving billboards, featuring festive moments with Disney characters like Mickey — I mean, Bob Cratchit! — and his family in Mickey’s Christmas Carol (one of my favorites every year!). Moving Billboards The Swedish Chef appears to wish you Seasonings Greetings! Seasonings Greetings from the Swedish Chef And so does the gang from Toy Story. (We’ll be seeing a LOT more of them in Hollywood Studios in 2018!) Toy Story Moving Billboard Olaf makes an appearance on screen (and in a LOT of the holiday snacks at the Studios), too! Olaf on the Moving Billboard They’re all introduced by Lanny and Wayne from Prep & Landing, who are also featured in Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! later in the evening. Prep and Landing Elves Your eyes will lift towards the Hollywood Tower Hotel (The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror) where projections will make things a lot more festive… and much less terrorizing . Toy Story Projections on the Tower of Terror By the way, you can still DROP IN on the Tower of Terror during Sunset Seasons Greetings. It’s still in operation throughout the evening. Projections on the Tower of Terror After that? Enjoy the snowfall and the twinkling stars on Sunset Boulevard as you await the next yuletide tale on the billboards! Sunset Boulevard And remember… there are LOTS of snacks in the area to enjoy while you take in the festive atmosphere. You can check out ALL the FOOD for the Flurry of Fun here, but allow us to recommend a few of our favorites right now! Find the Hot Chocolate Flight for guests 21-and-over at Fairfax Fare on Sunset Boulevard and at Min & Bill’s Dockside Diner at Echo Lake. Hot Chocolate Flight That’s a Hot Chocolate Martini, Bailey’s Salted Caramel Hot Cocoa, and a Black Cherry Bourbon Hot Chocolate you’re looking at right there. YUM! And Hollywood Scoops right on the Boulevard is serving Olaf Sundaes. Olaf Sundae Everyones favorite snowman sits atop a JELLY DONUT! Olaf Sundae You can find the Red Velvet Holiday Whoopie Pies at Sweet Spells and Fairfax Fare! Christmas Tree-shaped Red Velvet Whoopie Pie And there’s plenty more where that came from… check it ALL out here! Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Cap off your festive evening with the Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Holiday Nighttime Spectacular! Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Returning for the second year in a row, this projection and fireworks show follows Wayne and Lanny from Prep & Landing as they try to rescue Santa and save Christmas, sharing holiday scenes from beloved Disney films all the while. The BAM! Part :-) If you’d like a reserved viewing area for the show, the Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! Holiday Dessert Party has returned as well. Find out more here. Echo Lake Decor Not only is Echo Lake completely full again (coming back from its refurbishment that took place throughout early fall), it’s also THE place to see the Hollywood Studios Christmas Tree, and take in all the new extra-large ornaments dotting the lake. Echo Lake This was our vantage point for catching Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! tonight. Jingle Bell, Jingle BAM! from Echo Lake To give you more of an idea, here is the Hollywood Studios Christmas Tree during the day. Hollywood Studios Christmas Tree Don’t forget to say “Hello!” to the one and only GERTIE of Dinosaur Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction while you’re around Echo Lake, especially since she is all dressed up for the season!
