Every year, many people choose to ring in the New Year at Tokyo Disneyland. From December 31 to January 1 of the following year, there’s also a special passport that allows fans and visitors to enjoy the warm and joyful atmosphere of celebrating New Year’s at the Disney park. Mickey, Minnie, and the main Disney characters also dress up in festive kimono outfits to celebrate with guests, creating a cheerful and jubilant holiday mood.

The limited-time New Year’s greeting special performance event runs for just five days (January 1 to January 5). New Year’s special merchandise went on sale starting November 13, 2015, and special New Year’s meals were available from December 25, 2015. In line with the Year of the Monkey (Shen), a monkey doll charm of Abu was also released. The Mickey and Minnie kimono couple dolls are popular items, and the Mickey daruma popcorn bucket has become a must-buy collectible for fans.
