Originally Posted By Darkbeer I was looking at the Disneyland.com calendar, and they have posted the start of the Christmas events. Remember... Dreams come True will be offered Nightly, starting Friday, November 11th. The normal 9:25 PM start on most nights, 7:45 PM on nights the park closes at 8 PM. The snow effect will be offered, more than likely they will just add the song White Christmas to the end of the fireworks. The Christmas Parade will start Friday, November 18th. There will be one showing of the Parade of Dreams at 3 PM, and then two showings of the Christmas Parade at 5:15 and 7:45 PM on most nights. On nights the park closes at 8 PM, The Parade of Dreams will be offered at 4:30 PM, and the Christmas Parade at 6:30 PM. At DCA, Aladdin will remain at 5 days a week (due to casting issues), but they will add Block Party Bash parades on Monday and Tuesday (normally dark) during the peak weeks of Thanksgiving and Christmas. Christmas Peak will start on Friday December 16th, and go thru Monday, January 2nd. While the schedule of events are not yet posted for this time, the Electrical Parade should be offered nightly at DCA on these days, along with Fantasmic! at Disneyland. What is interesting is the hours the first week of January, as they are currently showing the normal off-season hours starting Tuesday, January 3rd, even though many schools will be on vacation that week. Here are a few selected large SoCal schedules. (Note, the following is just the "Traditional/Single Track" schedule, as most school districts have multiple schedules, but most match up for the holidays.) San Diego Unified - Winter Recess - December 19th thru December 30th Spring Recess - April 10th thru the 14th Anaheim - Winter Recess - December 26th thru January 6th Spring Recess - April 17th thru the 21st Los Angeles Unified - Winter Recess - December 19th thru January 6th Spring Recess - April 10th thru the 14th Riverside Unified - Winter Recess - December 19th thru December 30th Spring Recess - April 3rd thru the 7th
