Early entry for both parks on the same day? That's bad news for AP holders staying offsite.

Just went and looked...as onsite guests, this is pretty cool. However it means I now have to make decisions on where to start each day. And yes, patience will be a virtue since it does seem they are expecting high crowds that week.

Only two more theme weeks to go (can you believe it?), and the next one will be up sometime tomorrow (Monday) morning! I peeked in on this thread a few times over the week, but usually didn't sign in. It seems like a lot of posts have come in since I last peeked, so I have to get caught up! Thank you guys for keeping the thread active and going in my absence, and thank you for sharing all of the wonderful photos for our Holidays Gone By theme week!!

A few questions....Is that Santa's reindeer round-up always there for the holidays?
We will be there Monday, December 7 through Friday the 11. Is Monday our best option (potentially least crowded) to watch PTN and the fireworks? Or will the Candlelight crowd make things still crowded on Monday?

Santa's reindeer is under this weeks theme because it's a thing of the past. There probably will not be much of anything in the ranch area but some decor this year since there is no jingle jangle jamboree and the ranch is being removed for Star Wars land in Jan. as far as busy, maybe someone else will know more, but I would say that Mon-Wed or maybe even Thursday will be ok with potentially the lowest day on Wed- by the weekend the crowds will really be ramped up. Sadly with everything going on I don't think it will be very slow but just slower then the surrounding days. We are there the 8-16 so I've been following the crowds those days. Edit- because candlelight isn't publicized it shouldn't draw crowds into Mon that will be an issue.

Bummer about the reindeer. My daughter would have loved that. That makes sense...I know it will be busy but yes, I am just trying to decide what will be the least busy. We will be gone by the weekend and headed back to the east coast so that part isn't an issue. Thanks!!!!!!

My sentiments exactly. we will be there 12/27-1/1 and knew the crowds were going to be insane, but we figured we could at least rope drop the non-EMH park and get some stuff done that way. But it looks like that won't be an option either.

Yep, that would be me. I have changed my dates ONCE AGAIN and am now back to my original dates of Nov 21-22. This is the FINAL change and even this news of early entry on both days will not sway me! I did consider, just for a moment, of booking a room onsite, but I really can't justify it, so will be staying at the Ramada Maingate. I'll be solo, so it will be easier to maneuver through the crowds. It's going to be BUSY!!Early entry for both parks on the same day? That's bad news for AP holders staying offsite.
Oh, and I see that you're from Santa Rosa! My hometown!!

It’s Monday -- and it’s time for the twelfth week of the 5th Annual Theme Week Countdown to begin!!
With each new week will come a different Disneyland Resort holiday theme!
As I have previously mentioned in this Superthread, I’ll be showcasing a particular aspect of DLR's holiday festivities each week until early November. Including today’s theme, there are 2 more themes to explore over the next 2 weeks: One main weekly theme (today, October 26, 2015) and the final theme -- “Holiday Cornucopia/These Are a Few of My Favorite Things” theme on Monday, November 2, 2015 (I will provide more details about what the “Cornucopia” can include later this week).
Last year I began the Countdown about 3 weeks earlier than I started it this year. I am ending it before the Holidays at DLR officially commence (which will be Friday, November 13th, 2015, although certain things will likely soft open or soft launch on the weekend before Veterans Day). Once November starts and the decorations in the parks appear little by little each day, our attention shifts to learning information about and seeing photos of what is new for the current season’s celebration. This year there are many questions revolving around what will or will not be back for the holidays with the current focus on the Diamond (60th) Anniversary of Disneyland, and all eyes will be on any news or reports coming in from the parks.
Theme Week Countdowns are a great way to keep the photos rolling in on a regular basis and build anticipation for November at the Disneyland Resort! They are also a way to display the different elements, nuances and details of the Holidays at DLR that may be totally new to some visitors…or previously unnoticed/undiscovered by others. Finally, this is an excellent way for our Theme Week Countdown participants to shine a light on their wonderful pictures and attract visitors to their Trip Reports, photo libraries, etc.
Last week we strolled down memory lane and looked at the way things used to be in Holidays Gone By. Previously we enjoyed the holidays with a rustic, critter-ific flair in Frontierland, Critter Country and Grizzly Peak. We have explored the more whimsical side of Disneyland Resort’s holiday season, showcased in the contrasting styles of A Bug’s Land, Cars Land and Mickey’s Toontown. We have journeyed down the mystical, musical alleys of New Orleans Square and enjoyed Christmas with a Mardi Gras twist. We also paid a visit to New Orleans Square’s most famous residence and met its temporary houseguest, Jack Skellington, as he attempted to put a bit of a “nightmarish” Halloween spin on the Yuletide season in Haunted Mansion Holiday. And we peeked in at the ‘other’ holiday season at Disneyland Resort, Halloween Time, which collides with the Holidays every year as pumpkins give way to Christmas trees. Earlier we caught a glimpse of the special holiday offerings at the three Hotels of the Disneyland Resort and in Downtown Disney. Prior to that we enjoyed the Yuletide season around the world as we sailed through It’s a Small World Holiday, strolled through Fantasyland and cruised through the jolliest of jungles on the Jingle Cruise. We have also stepped back in time to see how Christmas was celebrated on Buena Vista Street and in Hollywood Land in the 1920s through the 1940s, respectively. We have also explored: the seaside celebrations in Paradise Pier & Pacific Wharf; tempting Holiday Treats & Treasures (a.k.a. Food & Merchandise); different seasonal photo options with Holiday Characters, PhotoPass and Santa Claus; and beautiful Christmas Trees, Wreaths and Holiday Horticulture (Holiday Flowers and Plants) around Disneyland Resort.
So…what will be our twelfth theme of 2015? It is one giant theme, comprised of several elements.
Whether you've been to Disneyland only one time or 100 times, you all know the feeling you get when you enter Disneyland’s gates, walk through the tunnel and step onto Main Street. It's a feeling of comfort. A feeling of sheer joy. It's like being transported into the past, to a wistful, simple, more innocent time.
For many of us, Main Street was the first glimpse of Disneyland we ever got (if you were not one of the folks taking the Monorail into Tomorrowland to start the day, that is), and it somehow left an indelible impression on us that can never be erased. For many of us, a trip to Disneyland is not a trip to Disneyland unless we begin it by walking slowly down Main Street and “taking it all in.” Main Street is somehow able to tap into a certain emotion in us unlike any other land in the park or any other area of the Resort.
If you've experienced the magic of Main Street but have never been to Disneyland for the Christmas season, you are in for a treat. In the evening, Main Street comes alive, aglow in lights and colors; the air filled with aromas and sounds... it's hard to describe. You just kind of have to see it to believe it. The beauty of Main Street at night, during the holiday season, has turned even the most jaded adults into awestruck children. It brings out the child in all of us.
There are many dimensions to the seasonal immersion of Main Street. It’s hard to know where to begin in choosing the photos to post today. There is Main Street in the daytime. There's Main Street at nighttime. There's Main Street as it is lightly dusted with tiny specks of snow. There's the giant Christmas tree, and the ornaments on the tree. There are many window displays. There are the Dapper Dans. There are the vehicles (the drivers of which often honk out a Yuletide classic or two). In December 2013 there was even a return of the Main Street Flower Market, which added a vibrant pop of color outside of the Market House.
While Town Square anchors one end of Main Street, at the opposite end sits the primary icon of the holiday season at Disneyland Resort, the dazzling Sleeping Beauty’s Winter Castle. The majestic Castle shines and glistens like a glorious beacon in the night, warming our hearts and bringing smiles to our faces. But be sure to catch it when its icicles are in full ‘sparkle mode,’ as the lights on the Castle intermittently ‘turn on and off’ after dark!
PhotoPass photographers are usually stationed in front of the Castle during both the day and night, to capture those perfect Christmas card-worthy shots. Though the icicles are not as impressive in the daytime, the festive wreaths and snow-capped turrets do not disappoint.
In 2015, due to Disneyland’s 60th anniversary, the Winter Castle will most likely not be as ‘wintry’ as usual, but will undoubtedly return in the future.
Almost nothing says “Disneyland” more than a parade. Disneyland’s parades are a longtime, legendary staple of the Happiest Place on Earth, and they bring smiles to the people who stop and watch these joyful processions.
A Christmas Fantasy Parade is no different. Most of our favorite and beloved Disney characters are decked out in their holiday finery, and they are joined by a familiar figure in a white beard and red suit as they march and frolic down the street. Gingerbread men with flattened bottoms, reindeer, toy soldiers and chubby-cheeked snowmen also dance along to the happy music that will not only have you tapping your feet but will linger in your head-- maybe a bit longer than you would like! In fact, anyone who has seen A Christmas Fantasy Parade can probably still hum the melody of its infectious theme song, even today.
Another event that says “Disneyland” is fireworks. Bundle up with your loved ones and a cup of hot cocoa and enjoy the splashes of green and red that dot the sky during the dazzling Believe…In Holiday Magic spectacle. This very moving show is sure to bring a tear to your eye, both because of the holiday music and the overall message of the narration. The fireworks culminate in the Winter Castle and the trees surrounding the hub becoming aglow in ‘icicles.’ For the finale, tiny flecks of snow fall on Main Street, at Small World Mall and near the Rivers of America in New Orleans Square, and a faint scent of freshly baked holiday treats fills the air.
If you are visiting Disneyland Resort for the holiday season, don’t leave without seeing these two longstanding, beloved traditions – A Christmas Fantasy Parade and Believe…In Holiday Magic Fireworks! There are some rumors to indicate that these annual events could, perhaps, become part of a hard ticket party in future years and removed from the roster of nightly seasonal entertainment for all to enjoy -- or scaled back to a more limited schedule. While we do not know if these scenarios will come to fruition, the entertainment landscape at Disneyland Resort is forever changing and it is always a possibility that some of the venerable parades and fireworks shows could be replaced with newer events.
In 2015, due to Disneyland’s 60th anniversary celebration, Believe…in Holiday Magic fireworks will not be presented, but will likely return in the future.
Disneyland’s Candlelight Ceremony and Processional (commonly referred to as “the CP” on DISboards”) has been an annual holiday tradition since the late 1950’s, usually taking place over the first weekend in December in Town Square (with some rare exceptions). Celebrity guest narrators (one per night) tell the story of the first Christmas, but some of the most haunting moments of the Ceremony are punctuated by the twinkling lights and beautiful Christmas music, which is sung by different choirs and conducted by the great Nancy Sulahian. One particularly poignant, moving and goose bump-inducing moment comes when a soloist and guitarist take center stage to perform “Silent Night,” both in Spanish and in English, ultimately inviting the audience to sing along.
I may or may not post more photos during the week.
Please feel free to post your photos of Main Street (including A Christmas Fantasy Parade, Believe in Holiday Magic fireworks, the Candlelight Ceremony and Processional and the Winter Castle) all this week, through Sunday, November 1st, 2015, 11:59 p.m., P.S.T.
Then, stay tuned for our thirteenth and final theme on Monday, November 2nd – Holiday Cornucopia!! We just have one more theme coming up after this week’s theme, so get your photos ready!
A reminder – please follow my leads (in either the photos I post or in the text) as to what to post for the themes. Please stick to the designated themes and save any other photos that don’t fit for future theme weeks. Every possible Disneyland Resort holiday-related element will be covered in some theme or another, so nothing will be left out. However, since this is a game/contest – in which people are entering to win Disney gift cards based on their contributions – it’s important to not stray from the theme that is underway. Feel free to ask me if you are not sure if something counts or doesn’t count.
