Disney Jollywood Nights is still a couple of months away, but guests planning to attend the holiday event have a new date they’ll want to remember.
Disney has confirmed that reservations are about to open for one of the more relaxed experiences offered during the separately ticketed event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Space is limited, and unlike many of the party’s offerings, this is something guests may want to secure before arriving.
Reservations Open September 17
Reservations for Jazzy Holidays at The Hollywood Brown Derby officially open September 17, 2026.
The special experience will be available on select Disney Jollywood Nights dates from November 7 through January 5, 2027. Guests can make reservations through Walt Disney World’s dining reservation system or by calling Disney Central.
Jazzy Holidays offers an alternative to spending the entire party bouncing between attractions and entertainment.
Inside The Hollywood Brown Derby, guests can settle into a more relaxed atmosphere while enjoying live holiday music from a pianist, specialty cocktails and an event-exclusive selection of food.
A Different Menu Takes Over
Guests shouldn't expect the normal Hollywood Brown Derby menu during Jazzy Holidays.
Disney will instead serve a special menu of light bites. Announced choices include Jazzy Sliders with bison and pork, Chorizo Arancini, Pork Belly Bao and a plant-based Tofu Bao.
Char-grilled Chicken Yakitori is another option, featuring crispy rice, passion fruit-soy marinated chicken, cilantro aïoli and watermelon radish.
Specialty cocktails are part of the experience as well. One announced option is a Cranberry-Jalapeño Margarita made with tequila, Cointreau, lime juice and house-made cranberry-jalapeño simple syrup.
Additional menu details could still be announced before the event begins.
Your Reservation Doesn't Include Party Admission
There is one major detail guests need to understand before booking.
A Jazzy Holidays reservation does not include admission to Disney Jollywood Nights. Guests need a valid ticket for the party taking place on the same evening.
Food and drinks aren't included with Jollywood Nights admission either, meaning guests will pay separately for whatever they order.
Jollywood Nights tickets range from $169 to $199 per person, plus tax, depending on the date.
Another Decision for Jollywood Nights Guests
Disney Jollywood Nights runs for five hours, from 7:30 p.m. until 12:30 a.m., so guests already have plenty to fit into one evening.
That makes Jazzy Holidays an interesting choice. Spending time inside The Hollywood Brown Derby means sacrificing some attraction or entertainment time, but it also provides a chance to slow down during an otherwise busy party.
For guests who decide it's worth making room in their schedule, September 17 is now the date to watch.
