Sip and Snack at Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar
As the story goes, Indiana Jones and his easygoing pilot Jock Lindsey stumbled on Disney Springs in 1938 while chasing down a mythology-based tip in central Florida. Before long, this home base became a popular stopover and watering hole for world travelers and locals alike, full of dusty mementos of glorious holidays gone by. Today, thrill-seeking families soak up the rugged charm of Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar, with its spare airplane parts, salvaged equipment and plenty of holiday decorations.
Looking for a peek behind the curtain at the offerings this year? This winter, the bar will serve up select seasonal bites, brews and libations for guests looking for a joyful time in between shopping at World of Disney and catching a new film at the AMC Disney Springs 24 Dine-In Theatres.
Listen to Live Music and Encounter Holiday Fun
In addition to the world-class retail and dining locations, guests visiting Disney Springs will be surrounded by a winter wonderland full of toy soldier stilt walkers, snowflake rollerbladers, a holiday drum line and a brass band playing holiday tunes.
On select nights, guests may be able to listen to a rotating lineup of regional and local bands play live tunes on first-come, first-served seating at the Waterside Stage, while being a quick stroll away from a variety of grab-and-go snacks. With a warm coffee from Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Company in one hand and some cheesy, melty goodness from The Daily Poutine in the other, this is the place to be on a chilly night surrounded by good friends and lively music.
On your visit, make sure to stop by Disney’s Days of Christmas and World of Disney, where you can find a wide range of cheerful holiday collections.
Greet Santa at Disney World
In between his busy schedule, Santa Claus will also swing by each of the four theme parks across Walt Disney World to meet guests on the nice list this holiday season. To put the bow on top, Santa Claus will also be stopping by Disney Springs through December 24, where you can take festive photos and share holiday wishes with jolly old St. Nick.
For specific times and locations to meet Santa on your next visit, visit My Disney Experience before he heads back to the North Pole.
