ALSO do POP Warner kids make an appearance at the party? Any experience with that?
I am struggling SO HARD with deciding whether we should buy tickets for December 6. We will be there December 4-10 with 6 day park Hoppers. Realistically only 5.5 days in the park due to traveling, which really isn't that many days!!
If we do the party, I worry we won't have the energy to spend a full day in the park. If we don't spend a full day in the park, I worry we won't do everything we want during our stay. Granted we are not going with children or anyone elderly so we may be able to make it work.
We want to schedule 3-4 ADRs as well as to hit every park and hit all the big ticket rides. But without knowing park hours at this point it's hard to plan or know what our days will look like.
I haven't been to the party since I was a kid so I can't really remember it.
AHHHH We don't know what to do! We are staying at AoA and plan on making any FP we can at 60 days if it matters.
Tickets purchased for the 12/11 party. This will be our first time at Disney during the Christmas season! Thanks to everyone for the helpful tips. Main want is pictures with Jack Skellington.
That's the party we are planning on going to! Heading to WDW for my 50th birthday on the 8th!!! I've only been twice before and never at Christmas time! CANNOT WAIT!
Probably depends on who you are interested in. Pooh and Gang may be a line. The list of characters are on the first page of thread.Just bought my tickets for my husband and i for the 11/30 party! This will be my first time doing the party so I'm super looking forward to it. I'm not a huge fan of Nightmare Before Christmas or Seven Dwarves - are there other characters that end up drawing HUGE lines that we need to watch out for?
I was one of the ones who was unable to book FP+'s on a party day last year. We had tickets for the party only. We were not staying on site, if that is relevant. I have also read of people being able to book before the party with just party tickets. I kept getting a message in MDE that said I couldn't book FP+'s even though my party tickets were linked to my account and magic band. I'm sorry that doesn't answer your question but FWIW that was my experience last year. This year I plan on being at MK the day of the party so it definitely won't be a problem for me. Sorry but this may be a wait and see situation.So I know this has been talked about, but I keep seeing conflicting answers. Does anyone know for sure if you can or cannot book fp's on the day of your party only ticket? Party ticket without a park ticket that day. We have done this before but I read it was a problem for some last year, but not for others. Or are we waiting to see what happens when people start to try to do this with the Halloween party? Very frustrating not knowing!
I was afraid it might be a wait and see! Well at least the Halloween party goers will be the guinea pigs for us! LOL If it's going to be a problem this year, I think I may just add an extra park day onto our tickets. That way I can book the fp's either way. Still curious to see how it goes this year!I was one of the ones who was unable to book FP+'s on a party day last year. We had tickets for the party only.
