Five Gingerbread Displays Coming to Disney World

Five gingerbread displays are coming soon to Walt Disney World Resort hotels for the 2025 holiday season.

Walt Disney World Gingerbread Displays

A gingerbread replica of Boardwalk Deli, decorated with icing and candies, is displayed indoors with poinsettias and greenery.

The gingerbread displays at Disney World are part of a sweet holiday tradition. Guests can see these incredible cookie creations for themselves as they visit the lobby of several Disney World hotel properties through January 1, 2026. Each design is new every year, so visiting them has become a seasonal tradition for many guests.

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort

A Grand Floridian Gingerbread House display showcases a sign reading "Established 1999." It features festive decorations, a counter with wrapped treats, and a TV screen displaying vibrant images.

As we’ve previously reported, there will be no gingerbread display at the Grand Floridian this year due to lobby construction. However, there are still several more across other Disney World hotel properties.

Disney’s Contemporary Resort

A gingerbread castle adorned with dream lights and surrounded by blue and silver trees stands majestically against a starry night backdrop in a spacious room with floor-to-ceiling windows.

Now in its 14th year of participation, Disney’s Contemporary Resort will host a gingerbread display again this year. Last year’s design was a Dream Lights Gingerbread Castle, which included the use of retired Dream Lights. The 2024 display was complete on November 8, 2024.

You can find another gingerbread display over at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. Last year’s display was an incredible replica of the BoardWalk Deli. It was completed on November 12, 2024.

Disney’s Beach Club Resort  

Now celebrating its 25th year of gingerbread displays, Disney’s Beach Club Resort is still spinning on theme. They are known for their annual gingerbread carousel, with a different theme each year. Last year’s theme was Mickey’s Christmas Carol, and it opened on November 10, 2024.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge 

Decorative gingerbread giraffe and zebra sculptures are surrounded by red poinsettias in a cozy wooden interior, evoking the charm of an Animal Kingdom Lodge.

At Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, gingerbread animals are the latest trend. They began this tradition a few years ago with Ginger the Gingeraffe. Then came Debra the Zebra, and last year, introduced Francisco the Flamingo. While we don’t know this year’s theme, we do wonder if another animal will join the lodge’s growing menagerie. Last year’s display was finished on November 25, 2024.

Disney’s Wilderness Lodge 

It’s been six long years, but Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is finally back in the lineup of gingerbread displays. After just making their debut in 2019 with their gingerbread log cabin, the lodge hadn’t made another display since. We eagerly await what they have in store for us. In 2019, their display was complete on November 12.
