Crowds for Christmas

[SWofDisorder]

What are the levels of closure for the parks at Christmas? Will they reach full capacity during the Christmas season?

Possibly. Do a search; this topic has been discussed many, many times and you'll find a lot of useful information.

This post is from three years ago, but I doubt that the closing phases have changed:

There will definitely be phased closures.

Last year, Magic Kingdom saw a Phase 3 closure on Christmas Day, December 26th, December 30th and 31st.

If the park closes at 11am, it's very possible that it will re-open by the afternoon.

If you are staying onsite, you should not have a problem getting into the parks. My family has entered parks as late as 10pm on NYE and never had a problem. That's not to say that this year won't be different - I may be eating crow this year. But during all of our trips - no park has reached a Phase 4.
