Hello! We are planning a trip for January 2015. We are thinking about January 4-8 (Sunday-Thursday) but these dates are flexible. We want to go within the first week of January, while still trying to avoid any after-New Years crowds. This will be our time to visit Disney during the holidays so we'd really like to see some of the decorations if at all possible. A few questions:

---When is the last showing for the Osborne lights and the Christmas lights on the castle? Do both of these usually stop showing on the same day?
---Will the Christmas parade or a special holiday version of Wishes show during our dates?
---Will any of the resorts still have their Christmas decorations up (gingerbread house at the GF, etc.)? The Wilderness Lodge is our favorite resort and we will most likely stay there, so seeing the decor there isn't a make-or-break deal.

I realize it may be too soon to know any specific dates for these shows… If this is the case, will Disney release an exact schedule for any of this closer to the holidays?

Thank you in advance! I appreciate any advice!

Sorry, but no exact schedules will be released with the possible exception of Osbornes.

Generally, decorations on Cinderella Castle last at least until the first Sunday of the year--anything after that is chancing it. Osbornes pretty much the same.

Christmas parade and Holiday Wishes generally stop no later than NYE or NYD.

Decorations at the resorts start coming down within a couple of days of NYD. No set schedule, but most remove them pretty quickly--in a matter of a few days or so.
