Oh, how I love a little Disney magic during the holidays! And when you throw Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, and a Christmas adventure into the mix, you already know I’m here for it!
Disney has unveiled the official trailer for Mickey’s Home Alone, an adorable new animated holiday special that puts a Mickey Mouse twist on the classic Home Alone concept. And from the looks of it, we’re in for plenty of laughs, festive fun, and a little Christmas chaos!
The special premieres Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 26, at 6 p.m. EST/PST on Disney Jr., and will be available to stream on Disney+ beginning November 27.
Mickey Mouse and Pluto Are Home Alone for Christmas!
In Mickey’s Home Alone, Mickey is looking forward to spending a cozy Christmas at home. But those plans quickly change when Minnie surprises everyone with tickets to celebrate the holidays at a world-famous Ice Palace!
Sounds like a magical getaway, right?
Well, in the middle of all the excitement and the rush to leave, Mickey and Pluto accidentally get left behind!
And wouldn’t you know it, trouble comes knocking!
Two mischievous little villains, a raccoon and a weasel, have their eyes on Mickey’s delicious Christmas dinner. Now Mickey and Pluto must work together to protect their holiday feast and save Christmas at home!
I can only imagine the hilarious situations these two will find themselves in, lol!
A Little Holiday Music to Get Everyone in the Spirit!
Of course, what’s a Disney Christmas special without some festive music?
The official Mickey’s Home Alone EP features original songs including:
- “Ho-Ho-Home for Christmas”
- “Favorite Christmas Feeling”
- A fresh arrangement of the holiday classic “Jingle Bells”
The original songs were written by Keith Harrison Dworkin, bringing even more holiday cheer to this sweet little adventure.

Tami’s Take: Christmas Is Always Sweeter With a Little Disney Magic!
Now, you guys know I have such a soft spot for Disney! There’s just something about those familiar characters, whimsical stories, and sweet childhood memories that makes me smile.
And Mickey and Minnie? They’re simply timeless!
I especially love holiday specials that bring generations together. Whether you’re watching with your children, grandchildren, or just curled up on the couch with a cozy blanket and a cup of hot cocoa, there’s something so comforting about a good old-fashioned Disney Christmas story.
With my two grandsons, Legend and Legacy, I’m always looking for fun holiday entertainment we can enjoy together, and this one sounds right up our alley!
Plus, can we talk about Mickey and Pluto having to defend their Christmas dinner? I already know those two are going to have their paws full, lol!
Between the festive music, adorable characters, and all that holiday mischief, Mickey’s Home Alone sounds like the perfect way to kick off the Christmas season.
So grab your favorite holiday pajamas, make some popcorn, and get ready for a little Disney magic!
Mickey’s Home Alone is produced by Wild Canary in association with Disney Jr., with Tom Rogers serving as executive producer, Rachel Ruderman as co-executive producer, Shane Prigmore directing, and Tony Morales composing the score.
