Which time do you think I should plan my visit around - early or late November. If early November around the Bonfire time is really busy, that may be enough to make me avoid it, but think I would prefer Xmas anyway!

What do you think?
 
Well the last Bonfire Spectacular is on the 9th Nov and Christmas "starts" on the 10th - so you could do both if you wanted to!! But if it's a choice between the two, then Christmas wins hands down - it's a proper season rather than a half hour firework show.
 
Christmas would win hands down for me. It is a very magical time at Disneyland Paris :love:
 
I've only been once before but it was for the Christmas Season and the only way to describe it is "magical" pixiedust: that's why I've been saving hard and we're off again this December and hoping it will be just as we remembered.

I weighed up the pros and cons of Bonfire v's Christmas and decided on Christmas because of Fantillusion, the Christmas decorations, Mickey's Winter Wonderland show, Snow on Main Street.
Bonfire spectacular really is just the fireworks show with the possibility of it being cancelled if the weather's bad.
Very early November you would of course catch the tailend of the Halloween season, which is fabulous.
Hope this helps. :)
 
It has to be christmas season for me. We are going 23rd for 4 days and I can't wait.

I was just wondering when it starts to get really busy at xmas time. Would it be busy around 3-7 Dec, or would I be better going 26-30 November? Cheers!

Looking at the online booking prices, they go up for the first week of December - which must mean they are expecting it to be busier. Not sure why though?
 
What do you think the crowd level is on Nov 10th. We only have 1 day to spend at DLP with a 1-day hopper. We want to go to the Studio first and finish up at DL. If we want to see the main shows and 2-3 rides in the Studio, would we still have time to do much at DL?

Glad to find out here x'mas starts on 10th. We had plan to be there on the 9th. Now we're changing to the 10th for the x'mas magic.
 
seems like a lot of people here are going for xmas! we're planning our first trip for dec this year - theres just something about the thought of dlp at xmas time! x
 
It is lovely at Xmas and there's so much more entertainment on then, than when we've been during other off-peak times!
