I recently attended a Disney Jollywood Nights event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. While the entertainment offerings are superb, the 82 exclusive culinary offerings are a major highlight of this seasonal special ticket event. Here are my thoughts on some of the best eats at this year’s event, such as the Miss Piggy Strawberry Glam and Sleigh Bell Brussels Sprouts (to name a few), along with where you can order them on select nights throughout the event until December 22nd.

I was provided with tickets to the event, but paid for the food offerings myself, making this experience partially hosted.

I attended Disney Jollywood Nights in 2023 and 2024, and I always look forward to the Christmas Gertie Cookie from Dinosaur Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction near Echo Lake. For $4.79, I get an eye-catching dinosaur-shaped sugar cookie and green icing that resembles Gertie (the popular park figure) wearing a Santa hat.

SheBuysTravel Tip: Arrive at the party early! Despite the party not officially starting until 7:30 pm, many food locations started serving the exclusive party food to party guests between 7:00 pm and 7:15 pm.

A new offering for this year’s Disney Jollywood Nights, the Miss Piggy Strawberry Glam from Hollywood Scoops on Sunset Boulevard is a solid option for those looking for a sweet ice cream treat and a souvenir cup.

Of all of the new offerings at this year’s event, I was most looking forward to this one, priced at $9.79, as I am a huge fan of Miss Piggy and strawberry ice cream.

As is customary for Disney, this treat meets the mark in terms of theming and aesthetics. That said, this bite is kind of a mixed bag in terms of texture, resulting from its combination of strawberry cheesecake, strawberry ice cream, strawberry boba pearls, and pink M&M’s. It delivers a powerful strawberry flavor, though, and I am already admiring the souvenir cup in my kitchen cabinet.

Even as a dessert fiend, I did not want to overlook the new savory options at Disney Jollywood Nights, such as the Sleigh Bell Brussels Sprouts from Backlot Express in the park’s Echo Lake area. I knew these vegetables, topped with bourbon-onion jam and crispy onions available for $4.79, were going to be a standout bite of the night. I was correct.

Since I don’t drink alcohol, the Bing Bong Candy Lemonade piqued my interest the moment I caught a glimpse of it at the Market at Animation Courtyard. Made with frozen strawberry lemonade and butterfly pea flower tea, I savored every sip. I particularly enjoyed the pink cotton candy and freeze-dried candy toppings. This beverage is priced at $6.99.

The Christmas Tree Cookie Stack from Dockside Diner is a must-have repeat snack at this festive event. This treat comes with a stack of vanilla cookies with pistachio buttercream, along with some raspberry and cranberry jam. This is one of the better value options at the event, priced at $5.79. I was able to share this with my family.

With this in mind, many of the event’s food and beverage items are shareable, making them more cost-effective if splitting with your travel party. Most of the party food items are priced under $10 (some under $6).

Whether you’ve attended a Disney Jollywood Nights event in previous years or are attending one this season, high-quality food and beverage offerings are to be expected, as is the case across many Walt Disney World locations and specialty ticketed events. I am already looking forward to hopefully attending another Disney Jollywood Nights event next year…fingers crossed it will be brought back!
