The holidays are a lot different this year, but leave it up to Disney to still find a way to bring some magic into your homes! With the Disney Parks on limited capacity guidelines for the past several months, and Disneyland in California still closed, the year’s Wonderful World of Disney Magical Holiday Celebration does not feature new performances live from the theme parks, but instead, memorable performances from holiday’s past!

In this special 5th anniversary edition of the annual event, which airs every Thanksgiving night, Emmy® Award-winning siblings Derek and Julianne Hough return for hosting duties at Disneyland alongside Trevor Jackson of Freeform’s “Grown-ish”, who is joining them from Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.  The Houghs have also planned a brilliant opening performance before the team gets into featuring festive flashbacks of performances by Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel, Kelly Clarkson, Jason Derulo, Ciara, Andrea Bocelli, OneRepublic, Pentatonix, Becky G, Shaggy, Boyz II Men and JoJo, Meghan Trainor and Brett Eldredge, and Aloe Blacc.

In addition to magical Christmas music, viewers will also get a brand-new sneak peek into Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure coming in 2021 to EPCOT in Florida and a look at Disney and Pixar’s all-new feature film “Soul, before it becomes available exclusively on Disney+ (where Disney+ is available) beginning Dec. 25, 2020. Featuring the voices of Jamie Foxx and Tina Fey, “Soul” introduces a middle-school band teacher who teams up with a sarcastic new soul on a mission to figure out exactly what makes life worth living.

Musical performances include the following:

Derek Hough and Julianne Hough sing and dance through a medley of holiday classics.

Kelly Clarkson — “Underneath the Tree” (2016)
