Disneyland soft-opened “it’s a small world” Holiday on Thursday, one day before the resort’s 2026 holiday season begins.

WDW News Today reported the soft opening from Disneyland Park on November 12. CrowdLevels recorded operating observations during the afternoon and early evening.

The preview was not steady all night. The latest CrowdLevels check showed the attraction down at 8:03 p.m. PST, with no planned closure listed. Guests at the park should check the current “it’s a small world” status before heading to Fantasyland.

Disney’s published holiday schedule begins November 13 and runs through January 6, 2027. A soft opening does not guarantee the attraction will remain available before or during its regular seasonal run.
