Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll 2025 | New trees for Villains, ‘Fantasia,’ ‘Frozen’
Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll is back for 2025 with new trees celebrating Disney Villains, “Fantasia,” and “Frozen,” as seen in this story with photos by Magic City Mayhem.
More than a dozen trees populate the walkways of Disney Springs in Walt Disney World near Orlando, Fla., each one themed to a different Disney movie or character family. Guests who find them all receive a free prize (see below).
The trees are up as of Nov. 13, 2025, though the Christmas Tree Stroll officially operates Nov. 14 – Dec. 31, 2025.
Disney Villains Christmas Tree
Location: Near the Aerophile balloon ride
Disney Villains are having a moment. Earlier this year, they debuted their own show, “Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After,” at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. They’re also a huge component of the new Disney Destiny cruise ship, themed to heroes and villains and setting sail for its maiden voyage on Nov. 20, 2025. That’s not to mention Villains Land, currently in construction at Magic Kingdom.
Therefore, it comes as no surprise that Disney Villains have their own tree in this year’s Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll, and fans of the baddies are sure to enjoy spotting their favorite characters. Snowglobe ornaments feature the villains’ faces, while other objects representing their treachery fill the tree.
We spotted references to the following Disney Villains:
- Evil Queen from “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”
- Lucifer the cat from “Cinderella”
- Queen of Hearts from “Alice in Wonderland”
- Maleficent from “Sleeping Beauty”
- Ursula from “The Little Mermaid”
- Jafar from “Aladdin”
- Shenzi, Bonzai, and Ed the hyenas from “The Lion King”
- Hades from “Hercules”
- Yzma from “The Emperor’s New Groove”
‘Fantasia’ Christmas Tree
Location: Near Planet Hollywood
“Fantasia” celebrates its 85th anniversary in 2025 — in fact, on the exact day this story is being published, Nov. 13! This tour de force of Walt Disney’s artistic vision manifests in a Christmas tree filled with characters and objects from the anthology film’s many orchestral segments.
Some of our favorites are the elephant trunks (representing the “Dance of the Hours” segment of the movie) and an ornament featuring the conductor, Leopold Stokowski. The “Fantasia” tree is topped with the sorcerer’s hat from “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice,” famously borrowed by Mickey Mouse in that segment of the film.
‘Frozen’ Christmas Tree
Location: Near World of Disney
While “Frozen” has been represented as part of the Disney Springs Christmas Tree Stroll in previous years, the 2025 version of the “Frozen” tree is new.
Its aesthetic is icy elegance, sprinkled with iconography from the “Frozen” movies such as the Snowgies and, um, Elsa’s arm? The tree topper is Sven’s pair of antlers.
