christmas parade?

[inloveindisney]

I have heard that once the mickey's christmas party is officially over, they do the parades and shows from the party during regular park hours. Is this true? I won't be arriving until the 23rd and I am very disappointed that I will miss the party, but I would love to see the parade and the night before christmas show-fireworks would be great too.
Anyone been there during the week of christmas that can verify this?

Yes, the will have the XMas events and parades throughout the end of the month. The parade is around 3:30 during that week at MK and a special MGM parade at 3.

I have a question! I have never been at Christmas time so I am not sure how this works.

The family and I want to go to the Magic Kingdom around the holiday season for another 1 day adventure. However, we do not want to be apart of the Christmas Party Celebration, but we would like to take part in seeing the decorations, etc...

Now, is the Christmas Party everyday? We would like to go on a day at which the park hours are from 9 am to 11 pm.

Thanks,

No, Mickey's Christmas Party is only on certain nights. I believe the last one is on December 21st.

The last one is actually the 22nd. Here's the link: http://www.wdwinfo.com/holidays/mvmcp.htm
There you will find all the info you need. The part is a NOT MISS attraction and I highly recommend it to everyone. We absolutely loved every part of it. The parade is awesome, the fireworks in my opinion are the best ever and the shows are terrific. the party, however does not start until I believe 7pm. what we did when we went is just bought the party ticket and used ticket money to go to a different park. they will start letting you in the park around 4pm with a party ticket so you can get a lot done in those few hours. Plus, with only 20,000 people in the park, the lines are very short.
