Today we were fortunate to attend a special media day focusing on all the holiday events that Walt Disney World has to offer for both visitors coming in from out of town as well as Florida locals as a reminder to made great use of their annual pass to come take it all the extras around the resort the holidays have to offer. We spoke with Steven Miller about some new Disney Parks merchandise, talked with Walt Disney World Ambassador Rich Tamayo about events around the resort, listened to the Dapper Dans play some Christmas tunes, and just had a great time meeting with and getting information about everything the resort has to offer over Christmas.

Take a look at this video and photos from today -
