A Musical Christmas with Mariachi Alegría de Disneyland & Miguel is a holiday themed show at Disney California Adventure at Carthay Circle Theatre at Buena Vista Street. It is themed after the 2017 Disney/Pixar animated feature film Coco.
==History==
On November 7, 2024, it was announced that a Coco-themed show would be coming to Disney California Adventure as part of its holiday season titled "'A Musical Christmas with Mariachi Alegría de Disneyland & Miguel" at Buena Vista Street as part of the park's Christmas season. Concept art revealed illustrations of Miguel Rivera in his mariachi outfit with a mariachi band known as Mariachi Alegría in the background. It was also revealed that the show would feature songs sung in a bilingual rendition in English and Spanish respectively and that the show would perform on weekdays from November 15, 2024 through on January 6, 2025 as part of the park's holiday season.
==Show summary==
"A Musical Christmas" is a seasonal show performing at Disney California Adventure part of the park's holiday season. The show features live performances inspired by Coco with Miguel, the Mariachi Alegría band, and baile folklórico dancers performing at the Carthay Circle area at Buena Vista Street. In accordance to its Coco theme, the show also includes renditions of songs bilingually performed in English and Spanish respectively. Such songs can include "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town", "Jingle Bells", or "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" - performed with English and Spanish verses in a bilingual manner. Hence its name, the show features Miguel (this time in mascot-style costume instead of puppet form controlled by a puppeteer in "A Musical Celebration of Coco") interacting with Mariachi Alegría. In spite of its Christmas theme, the show would occasionally include a song from Coco, such as "Un Poco Loco" from the film itself as well as guests being taught interesting facts about the different ways Christmas is celebrated in Latin American countries.
==Trivia==
*The song that plays at the beginning and the end of the show is "" (literally "The Little Donkey from Bethlehem"), a popular Christmas song heard across Latin America telling the story about a donkey on his way to Bethlehem.
*This is the first seasonal Coco-themed media that is not centered around the Day of the Dead but rather a different holiday (in this case, Christmas, albeit with elements themed after Mexican culture during the Christmas season).
