The holidays are the most magical time of year, and no one does magical celebrations like Disney Parks. The Mouse House’s holiday special is not to be missed, so it’s a good thing that it’s easy to watch.

Even if you aren’t in Walt Disney World or Disneyland, you can watch from the comfort of your couch. “The Wonderful World of Disney: Magical Holiday Celebration” will air Thursday at 9 p.m. EST.

ABC will air the two-hour primetime special on TV. However, those who prefer to watch on their computer or mobile device can watch a live stream on ABC’s website or app. Anyone watching the live stream will, however, need log in information from their cable provider.

The primetime Disney special will be star-studded. “Dancing With the Stars” alums Julianne Hough and Nick Lachey will host the special day along with Jesse Palmer. Even more celebs will appear as they perform in Disney Parks.

Fans of “Frozen” will be thrilled to see Idina Menzel and Kristen Bell, the voices of Elsa and Anna. They will be performing “When We’re Together” from the new short “Olaf’s Frozen Adventure.”

Ciara will perform a Christmas medley from Cinderella Castle in Disney World, and “The Mayor” star Lea Michele will perform “Baby It’s Cold Outside” with Joey McIntyre in Disneyland. The former New Kids on the Block member isn’t the only singer that will please fans of ‘90s pop. Hanson, who just released a holday album, are performing “Finally It’s Christmas.”

Girl group Fifth Harmony will perform “Can You See” from “The Star” soundtrack as well as “The Christmas Song,” and boy band In Real Life will sing “I’ll Be Home for Christmas.”

Darius Rucker will croon “Winter Wonderland” while Jason Derulo takes on “This Christmas.” Meanwhile, Fitz and the Tantrums will play two songs: “HandClap” and their original Christmas song “Santa Stole My Lady.”

There will be performers just for the younger viewers too. “Descendants” star Sofia Carson will perform, and the cast of the new digital series “Club Mickey Mouse” also have a number.

While the singing and dancing is fun, Disney Parks will also take the opportunity to highlight what’s coming next. There will be special preview of the new “Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge” sections of both Disney World and Disneyland.

Those who want host Nick Lachey to sing with the boy band that made him famous will have to wait for Christmas Day. ABC will air another holiday special on Dec. 25 that will feature performances from 98 Degrees. The band will perform “Seasons of Love” from their new Christmas album.

In addition, the second special will also feature different performances from many of the same performers listed above. Michele will get a solo performance, DeRulo will move to Sleeping Beauty’s Castle and Menzel will get a solo.
