Jazzy Holidays Returns to Brown Derby for Jollywood Nights
Published September 17, 2026
Jazzy Holidays is returning to The Hollywood Brown Derby at Disney’s Hollywood Studios for the 2026 Disney Jollywood Nights season, and reservations are reportedly open now. According to reports published Thursday, September 17, 2026, the experience runs on select event nights from November 7, 2026, through January 5, 2027.
As of Thursday, September 17, 2026, the reported details are that Jazzy Holidays takes over The Hollywood Brown Derby during every Jollywood Nights event date in that window, and that booking is live.
Jollywood Nights is a separately ticketed after-hours event at Hollywood Studios, so a Jazzy Holidays booking is not a substitute for event admission — the reporting frames this as an experience inside the party, not a standalone dinner night.
The November 7 start date and the January 5 end date are the full reported run of the offering. Beyond those dates and the reopening of reservations, the coverage available did not include further specifics.

What’s not confirmed
Disney has not issued a statement confirming these details, and this comes from a single report rather than an official announcement. Pricing, the menu, what is included with a booking, party-size limits, cancellation terms, and whether a Jollywood Nights ticket is required to book have not been announced. The full list of event nights inside the November 7–January 5 window was also not included in the coverage available.
What it means for your trip
If a Jollywood Nights date is already on your calendar, look at this now rather than later — holiday-season reservations at Hollywood Studios signature restaurants tend to move fast once they open, and the earliest and latest slots go first.
Buy or confirm your event ticket before you build an evening around the dining experience. The event nights are the limiting factor, not the restaurant.
Don’t stack this against the rest of the party. Jollywood Nights runs a compressed window, so a long table-service meal eats a real share of it — plan the meal as your anchor and pick two or three other things, not ten.
If the night you want shows nothing, keep watching instead of refreshing. Holiday dining fills and then leaks back as plans change, and SupaPark’s dining Drop Watch pings you when a cancellation frees a table so you can grab it in My Disney Experience.
