Cinderella is getting Frozen out of Disney World's Christmas show starting this week.

The Magic Kingdom's new Frozen Holiday Wish show will debut Wednesday and run nightly through Dec. 31 with an icicle-inspired lighting of Cinderella Castle and Frozen characters Anna, Elsa, Kristoff and Olaf making nightly appearances.

In the past, Mickey, Minnie, Donald Duck and Goofy debated how to decorate the castle for the holidays before the Fairy Godmother came in to light it up for Cinderella's Holiday Wish.

More than 200,000 white shimmering lights make the castle appear to be frosted over and the lights periodically twinkle, giving it an added magical touch.

The frosty world of the most successful animated movie of all time will play a big part in the park's annual holiday events this year. Frozen characters will join Magic Kingdom's Christmas parade. And over at Hollywood Studios, the summer sing-along and snow play area are now on the "continuing indefinitely" list of daily attractions. At Epcot, where the Candlelight Processional is one of the most popular holiday traditions, actor Jonathan Groff, the voice of mountain man Kristoff, will narrate the Christmas story Dec. 3-5, accompanied by a 50-piece orchestra and choir.
