At nightfall, the parade culminates in Santa’s Christmas Light-Up Party on New York Street, where guests can expect a brilliantly-illuminated show with stunning projection mapping, snowfall and favourite characters such as the Minions, Sesame Street friends, Shrek and Princess Fiona – all decked out in Christmas outfits!
