If you’re doing Jollywood Nights this year, book this before you do anything else. Reservations are now open for Jazzy Holidays at The Hollywood Brown Derby, the live-music dining experience that runs on select nights from November 7 through January 5, 2027.
It’s the quieter corner of Jollywood Nights. Live musicians play smooth tunes and holiday classics inside the Brown Derby while you order from an event-exclusive menu of light bites and craft cocktails. If you’ve ever wanted a break from the crowd without leaving the party, this is it.
Space is limited and the good dates go first, so here’s everything you need: the full date list, the menu, the fine print, and how to book.
Quick Summary
- Reservations: Open now
- Runs: November 7 through January 5, 2027, on Jollywood Nights event nights only
- Where: The Hollywood Brown Derby on Hollywood Boulevard at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
- What it is: Live music plus an event-exclusive menu of light bites and cocktails

What Jazzy Holidays Is
Jazzy Holidays takes over The Hollywood Brown Derby during Disney Jollywood Nights. Live musicians perform while guests order from a menu built just for the event.
The important detail: the standard Hollywood Brown Derby menu is not available during Jazzy Holidays. You’re ordering from the event menu, and that’s it.
Think of it as a built-in intermission for your night. Jollywood Nights leans loud and busy, and this is the one spot designed to slow the evening down.
Every Jazzy Holidays Date
Jazzy Holidays takes place on every Jollywood Nights event night:
- November: 7, 14, 16, 21, 23, 28
- December: 5, 7, 12, 14, 19, 21, 23
- January: 3, 5
That’s 15 nights total. December dates closest to the holidays book fastest, so if you want December 19, 21, or 23, move now.


The Jazzy Holidays Menu
The event menu is built around shareable light bites.
Food
- Jazzy Sliders — Bison and Pork, Onion Jam, and Gorgonzola Cheese on a Brioche Roll
- Chorizo Arancini — Shaved Parmesan and Salmorejo Tomato Sauce
- Pork Belly Bao — Korean Barbecue, Cucumber Slaw, and Soy Vinaigrette
- Tofu Bao — Seared Tofu, Cucumber Slaw, and Soy Vinaigrette (plant-based)
- Char-grilled Chicken Yakitori — Crispy Rice, Passion Fruit-Soy Marinated Chicken, Cilantro Aïoli, and Watermelon Radish
Cocktails


The craft cocktail list includes the Cranberry-Jalapeño Margarita, made with Flecha Azul Reposado Tequila, Cointreau Liqueur, lime juice, and house-made cranberry-jalapeño simple syrup.
Alcohol is served to guests 21 and older with valid identification.
What You Need to Know Before You Go
Read this part carefully, because the ticket structure trips people up every year:
- A valid Jollywood Nights event ticket is required and is not included with your dining reservation
- Food and beverages are purchased separately and are not included with your event ticket
- Only the event-exclusive menu is offered — the standard Brown Derby menu is unavailable
- Alcohol is served to guests 21 and older with valid ID
- Entertainment, offerings, and experiences are subject to change or cancellation without notice
So you’re paying for three things: the party ticket, the reservation slot, and whatever you order. Budget accordingly.
What Jollywood Nights Tickets Cost
Jollywood Nights tickets run $169 to $199 per person, plus tax, depending on the date. Cheaper dates are typically early-season weeknights; the closer you get to Christmas, the higher the price.
How to Book Jazzy Holidays
Reservations are open right now. You can book two ways:
- Online through the Walt Disney World dining page for the Brown Derby’s Jazzy Holidays experience
- By phone at 407-WDW-DINE
Your Jollywood Nights event ticket has to be purchased separately, in addition to the dining reservation. Buy the event ticket first, then book the table. There’s no point holding a reservation for a night you can’t get into.
Tips for Getting the Most Out of the Night
- Book a mid-event time slot. Jollywood Nights runs late, and a table in the middle of the evening gives your feet a real break
- Don’t treat it as dinner. These are light bites. Eat something substantial before the event starts
- Go on an early-season date if price matters. November nights are usually the cheapest tickets
- Split plates. The menu is built for sharing, and ordering three or four between two people covers a lot of ground
The Bottom Line
Jazzy Holidays at The Hollywood Brown Derby is open for reservations now, running on all 15 Jollywood Nights dates from November 7 through January 5, 2027. You get live music, an event-exclusive menu of light bites, and a genuinely calmer place to sit during a busy party night.
Grab your Jollywood Nights ticket first, then book the table, and go in knowing the food and drinks are extra. If you want a December date near Christmas, don’t wait.
