***1st Week of December Thread ADR Plans, Park Hours, and dealing with Pop Warner***

Hmm possibly... Fireworks usually happen 15 minutes after F? Or was it the other way around... Fireworks then 15 mins after is f. I feel that 8 might be too early for fireworks but I've never seen fireworks at DHS before. If the fireworks would happen at 8:30 though, I'm sure the dessert party will start earlier than 7:30.
sunset is at 5:30 and I believe all of the stages of twilight are completed by 8. But I am thinking my best bet for extended hours and fireworks will be that saturday night.

don't forget that wednesday is historically pop warner night at HS.

For the fireworks and F! I have seen other posters say it is possible as long as there is a 15 min difference.

I think CP may not be for you if you don't like Christmas in general. If you are interested to hear, I think you'd be able to hear from outside. :) I'm waiting for CP only to get more availability for garden grill and Akershus:P

Great you have a rough plan already for your date night! I think that having some idea helps so you don't just say, ok so what do you want to do and get an I don't know answer. ;)

yes if you're from Toronto, there is one here plus so many other teppanyaki places that are even all you can eat. :)
I told myself I'd never do indian at disney but here I am with Sanaa. We'll see how that goes. I think part of it is that i live in white-bread new england and while the seafood is good, it is an ethnic dead zone. i make my own greek and indian because those are the two cuisines I can't live without, lol.

when i choose my disney restaurants i try to go for something that is more unique to disney. Sanaa has the gorgeous location and decor to back it. from strip mall indian to fancy places in little india in NYC i've nver seen decor like Sanaa so I'm going to try it. Hope I am not disappointed breaking my own rule ;)

it is? pop warner is a big sporting event they have there and typically in the past wednesday night has been the night that they have a private party at Hollywood Studios.

edited to add: Wednesday night is EMH is the MK from 10-12pm. I am planning to go to get warmed up for the xmas party!

I try for the same... Something more unique to Disney experience and atmosphere wise, even if it's not in terms of food :)

Well they close it off to general public, it is a private party. I just checked and HS is not EMH on wednesday, it is MK.
 
cross posted lol. I knew that did not sound right! I am planning to do that as a warm up for the xmas party the next night!
Lol! I'm totally confused since I was replying on my commute to work. I guess I should not respond unless I have my spreadsheet in front of me!

Oh I see! In that case I think it would be low crowds during the day since it closes early? Might be a good idea to spend the morning there and skip to Epcot after... I have cape may for breakfast that day...

I'm not sure if it closes early of it is a truly "after hours" party (closes regular time and then the party is after hours). Nothing has been posted yet one way or the other but the past info I've had has it starting at 8pm - I'd guess if that were the case they would keep the 7pm park close with 7pm fantasmic knowing they would have everyone out before opening the gates again.
 
POP Warner will be there 12/3 or 12/4 till??? I am considering attending MVMCP on 12/4. Will this be good night to attend? My other choice is 11/29. But I thought 12/4 (which last night of our DW trip) may be a nice way to wrap up our trip. We will be there 11/28-12/5.

Pro & Cons for 12/4 MVMCP - Pro: nice way to finish our trip and easy morning to rest up. Free up 11/29 to visit park which should be less busier than 12/4 park day. Cons: The only and last chance to attend MVMCP. What if it rain out or is super busy due to weekend event?

I think generally November and Tuesday (11/29) is less busy? Touring plan has a page that compares how busy each party is during last year. Maybe you could check that out :)

You are correct. From what I read, it "should" be less busy for Nov & Tue party night. I guess I am just debating if the benefits for choosing 12/4 for our trip may be worth to attend a "busier" party night. Decision. Decision.

I attended a Sunday halloween party in september 2014 and was surprised at how busy it was as I wouldn't have thought it was really a weekend day. for whatever that is worth. undercover tourist has MK on Sunday the 4th as a very low crowd day.

I was also debating to attend between Dec 6 and Dec 8. Since we are moving from AKL to CR on Dec 6, I decided on Dec 8 even if it's supposedly busier.

I'm there on the 8th too because I will be at the Poly (BWV first half). I wanted my trip the other way with poly first half and BWV second but couldn't get those days at the resort. Oh well.
