Parades/shows in January at Disneyland resort

Question

Trying to find information on what parades and shows are on in January. Specifically,January 7-9, a Wednesday to Friday. It should be after the holiday stuff—trying to see if World of Color, Fantasmic etc will be happening!

Thanks for any info!

Answer

Great question. For January 7–9 at Disneyland Resort, the entertainment schedule is pretty quiet—this is a low season period just after the holidays and before bigger seasonal shows ramp back up. Here’s what my research shows for those dates, plus key notes to help you plan.

Parades / Shows on January 7–9

No daytime parades: According to the Disneyland showtimes for January 8, 2026, there are *no parades scheduled* at Disneyland Park.
World of Color: The classic “World of Color” water show is *not running* during that time. According to the Disney Blog, it goes into refurbishment starting January 8.
Nighttime spectaculars / fireworks: According to the Reddit-based reports from previous years, there may be Mickey’s Mix Magic (projections only) on weeknights, but *no fireworks or Fantasmic* are scheduled for those early January weekday dates.

Conclusion & Tips

It’s very likely that *January 7–9* will have very limited entertainment — no parades, and no major nighttime shows or fireworks.
If your priority is seeing a big night show, your best bet is to check the Disneyland app daily for the "Entertainment / Today’s Showtimes" once you arrive — schedules can change.
Instead of planning around large-scale shows, you may want to focus on character experiences, smaller performances (like musical groups), or simply enjoy the rides and lower crowd levels during this quieter time.
