MVMCP 2012 Official Information

Has the character list been leaked anywhere yet since the first party is tomorrow??? Trying to decide between 1 or 2 parties now since Belle/Beast were taken away.

Cannot wait! Just got through this entire thread and now I'm more excited than ever. I went to MVMCP for the first time last year with a friend. I am taking DD (age 11) and possibly DH is going with us for a whirlwind weekend trip 12/15-18. The only night we can attend is Sunday 12/16. I was on the fence about buying tickets early but with that being the only night we can go I guess there is no reason to wait to buy.

Excited for tonight but worried about the crowds! Not sure what our must see is! My mom is coming and can't sit or stand long any recommendations now good spot were she can sit and watch the parade? She can't sit low like curbs etc.

A few years ago when we were there at Christmas time we got a Mickey Shaped Snowman Bucket, and had it filled with popcorn! I was wondering if they had anything new this year or if it is the same Snowman bucket? We won't be able to go this year, but I can try and call and order them over the phone! Thanks!

Went last night crowd was enormous due to sell out. We saw the 745 castle show walked around starting from tomorrowland back towards crystal palace found a place about 9 on main st for the fireworks and second parade.The lines were so big for meet and greets we couldn't even do any. dont think We'll do a mvmcp again so crowded you couldnt enjoy what you paid your money for fireworks were great,castle was beautiful and hopefully got some great photos but overall disappointed

I'm sure if you went to a not sold out party it would be a lot different. I know that doesn't help your current perception of the party as of last night, but it could happen!

I'm going Monday. Any speculation how crowds will be? I was hoping, in theory, that being on a Monday and at the end of the Veterans Day holiday (with families going back home from a long vacation) that the crowding would be slightly less. Wishful thinking on my part, probably.

Although I think so much of this revolves around expectations and attitude. I'll expect some crowding going in.

We went on 9th it was very crowded. We waited for parade which I loved best one in my opinion. Then we went to NFL for Ariel. We had a couple cookie stops and caught the fireworks on monorail leaving as the kids were done. Our party was short but I still loved it. Snowing on Main Street is magical!
We also got the new prep and landing cards, they had tons at 9 pm! We did a few rides but it was pretty crowded.

They're on the SotMK card that's being given out at the party.

We're going on the 13th of December. We went last year also, so I'm wondering if any of the shows are different than the ones last year?

I posted on the "i'm attending thread" but I thought I would post here as well.
This is just pasted from the other thread:
I attended the Nov. 9th party. We only have like 2 pictures as both of our phones died, sorry. We got in the park just after 4pm. Even with a sold out party we got to do all the party stuff (fireworks, parade, both shows, and we even saw the snow on Main Street) but we did not wait in line for the characters (but some of the lines looked very short especially the ones in front of the new Fantasyland.)

All the rides were 10 min. wait or walk on and the new Fantasyland was open (Ariel was walk on, we didn't do Belle but the wait said 40 min.) The fireworks were awesome and at times it was like the were surrounding you. The parade was my favorite part and the shows got definitely us in the holiday spirit.

If anyone wants specific details please ask, I will pop back in and answer throughout the day.
