Disney's Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights at Hollywood Studios

Soon once again it will be time for Disney’s Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights at Hollywood Studios! Each year it gets bigger and better, with millions of blinking, flashing and music themed Christmas lights.

The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights is put up each year at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on the streets of America. Disney started displaying the lights in 1995.

It all started when Jennings Osborne from Little Rock, Arkansas put up 1,000 Christmas lights for his daughter. Each year he made the display bigger and bigger until people started complaining about the lights.

Thanksgiving dining at Disney

Disney Thanksgiving day events are often confused with other Holiday activities going on in that same month. Many think that there is a Walt Disney World Thanksgiving day parade, but that is not true, not at the Disney in Orlando.

There is a Disney Thanksgiving day parade at DisneyLand in California. Also many Disney floats are in the Macy’s Thanksgiving day parade. So just what is going on for Disney Thanksgiving day events?

Well there is a lot of other activities going on around the same time. All the parks will be open, and many of the big Disney park dining restaurants will be serving full Thanksgiving day meals, a list of which I made below.

Disney art show at downtown Disney

Soon it will be time for Disney’s Festival of the Masters 2010 art show at Downtown Disney marketplace! This art show is one that I really enjoy seeing and go to it every year.

This year marks the 35th Festival of the Masters art show, sponsored by Sharpie (I assume the pen). It’s an open air juried art show that is spread out all over the Disney’s downtown marketplace area.

Each artist gets a white exhibit tent, and the art you can find there is top quality and fantastic. You can see paintings, photography, sculpture, jewelry and more. There is always some very unusual and one of a kind exhibits to see.
