Jollywood Nights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios kicks off Saturday, Nov. 11, and runs select nights through Dec. 20. It’s a separate ticket event similar to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom.
But Jollywood Nights seems like it’s going for a more elevated affair by turning the Hollywood Brown Derby into a jazz club and hosting a Twilight Soiree in the courtyard of the Hollywood Tower Hotel.
The party’s new menus, which Disney dropped last week, also seem to be going for a swanky but still Disney-fied vibe.
