Here is what the map looks like when all the stickers have been placed.
The Lion King

First up is The Lion King tree! The quote on the sign reads:
“To find it, you must look beyond what you can see.” ~ Rafiki

The tree is topped with a sculpture of Rafiki holding baby Simba aloft. Lion masks, leopard-print ribbon, gold baubles, and natural elements adorn the tree.
*NEW* Bluey

New for this year is a Bluey-themed tree! There is no quote on the sign.

The tree itself is somewhat generic, with a thick gold garland spiraling around the length of the tree and ornaments of different Bluey illustrations. Bluey herself is near the top by the star.
Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas

“This empty place inside of me is filling up!” declares the Jack Skellington quote for The Nightmare Before Christmas-themed tree.


A fan favorite, the Nightmare Before Christmas tree is laden with imagery from the film, including Lock’s, Shock’s, and Barrel’s masks, evil toys, and the tree-eating snake.
*NEW* Monsters, Inc.

Another new tree for 2026 is the Monsters, Inc. tree. The sign does not have a quote.

Along with lots of eyeballs, the tree has a door (although not Boo’s door) plus a multitude of door and hard hat ornaments and a Scream Canister topper. Boo in her monster costume hangs off the side.
Frozen

“Some people are worth melting for,” reads Olaf’s quote for the Frozen tree.

As to be expected, the Frozen tree is decked with snowflakes and icy ornaments. Sven’s antlers top the tree, and a scene with a Snowgie is near the base.
Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse

The quote on the sign for Mickey and Minnie’s tree is from Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas and is a reference to the classic Christmas story “The Gift of the Magi”:
“Oh Mickey, I can’t believe you gave up what means most to you for me.” ~ Minnie Mouse

Their tree is decked with Mickey icon ornaments in all variations, from gold glitter to snowflakes to peppermint candies. Red and white polka-dot poinsettias are an homage to Minnie. The tree is topped with Mickey’s top hat from Mickey’s Christmas Carol.
*NEW* Hallmark

In honor of the forthcoming film Holiday Ever After: A Disney World Wish Come True, Hallmark has joined the stroll with a themed tree to accompany its special pop-up shop at Disney Springs. The sign reads, “May all your Christmas wishes come true!”

Mickey and Minnie wave from ladders as they are actively decorating the tree with candy cane-striped and Hallmark logo ribbons, Mickey icon wreaths and ornaments, and scenes from the Holiday Ever After print that features on the merchandise. A dimensional version of the Hallmark Gold Crown logo serves as the tree topper.
Sphere

“Chill with us at Disney Springs” announces the sign for this ultra-modern take on a Christmas tree.

Looking like it came straight from Tomorrowland, the Sphere tree is comprised of multiple golden wire-frame orbs with iridescent spheres throughout.
Fantasia

The Fantasia tree is introduced with a famous Disney quote:
“All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.” ~ Walt Disney

Topped with the Sorcerer’s Hat, it includes elements from the famous film, including the mushroom dancers, instruments, and lots of blue and shimmering stars.
Annual Passholder

Annual Passholders are honored with this special tree, which encourages visitors to “Make the most of the magic with an Annual Pass!”

The Annual Passholder tree is decorated with cutout ornaments of multiple Walt Disney World attractions, from Slinky Dog Dash to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure (which recently received new props), plus Walt Disney World buttons and paper ring garlands made of park maps. Monorail Red pops out from among the lower branches.
Town Center

“Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!” reads the sign for the main tree at Disney Springs for the season, the Town Center tree.

Towering over its courtyard, the Town Center tree features silver ornaments of the Aerophile among traditional decorations.
Encanto

The colorful Encanto tree celebrates the Family Madrigal, with a Bruno quote on its sign saying, “You’re the real deal, kid.”

The different doors of Casita with the Madrigal family members hang alongside a variety of Isabella’s flowers and plants. A candle near the top serves as the topper.
Disney Cruise Line Topiary

Disney Cruise Line celebrates its Very Merrytime offerings with a special topiary display.

The topiary is shaped like a DCL ship, complete with the red funnels and AquaMouse/AquaDuck slide, and painted blue and white. It sits in a planter made to resemble waves with the Disney Cruise Line logo.
Moana

The Moana tree celebrates the enduring spirit of the season with its quote:
“There is nowhere you could go that I won’t be with you.” ~ Gramma Tala

Decorated with brightly-colored baubles, the Moana tree also features nautical elements like shells and starfish, along with Moana’s boat and a cascading garland of tropical flowers. Kakamora peek out from among the branches near the top.
The Princess & the Frog

Head down to New Orleans with The Princess & The Frog tree, which features Tiana’s promise that “My dream wouldn’t be complete without you in it.”

Dominated by the Mardi Gras color scheme of purple, green, and gold, Tiana’s tree is covered with musical notes, fleur-de-lis, baked goods, and a garland with the lyrics of “Almost There.”
Disney Villains

If you’re more of a Scary Christmas person, the Disney Villains tree is perfect for you. It’s defined by a Maleficent quote:
“Off he rides, on his noble steed, a valiant figure, straight and tall! To wake his love, with love’s first kiss. And prove that ‘true love’ conquers all!”

Symbols of multiple Disney villains adorn the tree, including the Evil Queen’s poison apple, Jafar’s staff, and the Queen of Hearts’ cards. Snowglobes featuring the villains’ portraits also hang from the tree.
Star Wars

“The Force Connects Us,” much like the spirit of the holidays, as shown with the Star Wars tree.

Stormtrooper helmets hang among “Star Wars 50” ornaments, Jawa heads, round droids, and baubles decorated with Star Wars iconography.
Lilo & Stitch

What better way to celebrate the holidays than with Lilo & Stitch‘s enduring message of “ohana”?
“Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.” ~ Lilo

Surfboards, tropical fish, and hibiscus hang from the tree, along with Lilo’s red dress (with Scrump nearby) and Hawaiian shirt ornaments.
Toy Story

The quote for the Toy Story tree is from Woody to Forky and echoes the same sentiment as to how the holidays form lifelong memories for us:
“You are Bonnie’s toy. You are going to help create happy memories for the rest of her life.” ~ Woody

Angel Kitty from the holiday special Toy Story: That Time Forgot stands atop the tree, which features multiple Mr. and Mrs. Potato Heads and Little Green Men among brightly-colored paper ring garlands and other Toy Story icons, including Woody’s Sheriff badge and the Pixar ball.
Marketplace

The Christmas Tree Stroll concludes at the Disney Springs Marketplace tree, which, following its “kids at heart” theme, is filled with old-fashioned Christmas symbols.

Gingerbread men, circus peanuts, wooden spool garlands, yarn balls, and more fill the classic tree, which is topped with a shiny silver-and-gold aluminum star.
Completer Prize

This year’s completer prize for finishing the Christmas Tree Stroll map is a cutout Christmas tree-shaped card featuring Minnie, Mickey, and Pluto.

It pops out of the frame.
