The Simpsons Meet the Bocellis in Feliz Navidad is a Simpsons short special released on December 15, 2022 on Disney+.
Plot[]
It is Christmas time in the Simpsons family house and Homer tells his children Bart and Lisa to be patient, telling them that he gave their mother Marge the greatest gift anyone had received which is revealed to Andrea Bocelli. Homer introduces Bocelli to his family explaining to the Simpsons family that he brought his children Virginia and Mateo Bocelli. Andrea Bocelli then sings the song "Con Te Patriò" and as Bart approaches him, Homer interrupts, telling Bocelli to sing a Christmas song which Virginia tells her father that the song he should sing for Christmas is "Feliz Navidad" by José Feliciano. The Bocellis then sing "Feliz Navidad" together which the Simpsons family join in the fun, while Santa's Little Helper observes the Simpsons family enjoying their Christmas moment.
Throughout the montage, various other characters such as Chief Wiggum, Snake Jailbird, Ralph Wiggum, Steamboat Itchy (wearing a Santa hat during the montage), Brandine and Cletus Spuckler, Groundskeeper Willie, and Sideshow Bob are seen enjoying their moments while the Bocellis continue singing with the Simpsons family. After the song, Bart drives past an icon with Mickey Mouse on it which Mickey's head warns Bart to not drive in front of the icon.

- During the credits sequence where Homer dressed as Santa appears, a few Disney characters appear during the credits albeit in a non-speaking cameo. These include Huey, Dewey, and Louie sitting on Homer's lap, while Mowgli from The Jungle Book, Ariel (in her human form) from The Little Mermaid, and Pinocchio from the film of the same name are seen waiting in line.
- The Gracie Films logo with a silhouette of Mickey Mouse on it seen during the end of the short shows a shushing audience member wearing a Santa hat.
- Also, the Disney+ bumper with Bart spray-painting on it seen after the credits uses the same animation as in the standard one but shows him wearing a Santa hat.
