"Official" Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party 2017 - Believe in the Magic

A new Ultimate Christmas Package has been announced by Disney and may be of interest to some of you, for one of 2 reasons ...

https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/special-offers/ultimate-christmas/

It is specifically for the dates 12/21 - 12/26 and includes a special extra each day, including tickets to MVMCP. I priced it out using Coronado Springs as the example since they quote that price for a family of 4. The package is less expensive than booking those 5 nights at the Magical Holiday room rate at CSR with 4-day park hoppers and tickets to MVMCP.

Reason 1 - If those are your travel dates - you may want to call and get it priced and compare it to what you currently have booked.

Reason 2 - The package includes a ticket to the 12/21 MVMCP. So, if that is the date you were planning on going, you may want to carefully consider when you purchase your ticket to the party. Maybe the 12/21 party sells out earlier because of this new package??
 
Besides the covered seats, can anyone see any advantage of the Tomorrowland Terrace MVMCP Dessert Party vs. the Plaza Gardens Viewing Dessert Party? I mean I know the dessert portion of it is all at Tomorrowland Terrace, but really the difference is covered table viewing at one, and plaza area viewing at the other. I *may* still have both booked and need to drop one so I can get my refund. I personally want to keep the plaza gardens viewing because of the better viewing angle and the better price, lol. There is a part of me that's afraid to cancel the Tomorrowland Terrace one in case they decide to offer reserved parade viewing with one of the two varieties (and if so, I would assume it would be the more expensive one), but not with both.

A bunch more Fastpass+ were just added to the system for Thanksgiving week. I've seen Avatar, Navi, 7DMT, Peter Pan's Flight, Frozen and more. ---KtP


I just modified my Day 2 FoP from 6:20pm to 1:45pm from this morning. Earlier after booking, no more available. Woo-hoo!

Thinking/wondering the same thing!
 
We have tickets to the party on 11/28. Would you do a sit down dinner at 4:20 pm or 6:30 pm? Is there any chance we won't be let in at 4 with just a party ticket? TIA

4:20 - you'll miss some party time with a 6:30, and in my opinion, the tickets are too pricey to be spending any of the party in a restaurant.

I suppose there's a always a chance they might change their policy about letting guests in at 4:00 with just a party ticket, but I think it would create too much of a backlog at the gates to make everyone wait until 7:00, so I think it's highly unlikely they'll change.

This!
 
Hoping someone can answer this question. What happens between 6-7 on the party nights while they are escorting other guests out of the park? If you have a mvmcp ticket will you be able to continue to go on rides until the Party starts?

Probably, but no one knows for 100% since this 6 pm close has never happened before.
 
Got all the fastpasses I wanted at close to the times I wanted today for our trip from dec. 16-23 and am so excited to be 60 days out from our family Christmas trip. My sister and I just decided to do a short girls trip on the weekend of November 10-12. So we're going to go to the second MVMCP on Nov. 10th and then going with my girls and husband to the last party of the year on dec. 22nd. Haven't been to one in eight years, and now I get to go to two in one season! Can't wait! Counting the days!

I'll be there on the 22nd too!
 
Should I keep my fp for Test Track or ride it 1st thing in the morning and get fp for Illusions?
Is it easy to get good spot for Illusions without fp?
