Disneyland at Christmas/Holiday Season Superthread #5

[Miggee]

Thanks for letting us know.

I guess that means it will be easy to book the holiday tour since not everyone would want to do it without the attractions.

Would one assume that the Festival at DCA would start around November 10th?

I would hope . I'm already disappointed that Paint the night isn't showing until the following week.

OMG, the holiday food and wine festival looks so exciting! Let me know if you want my fastpasses, I'll be too busy eating and drinking to ride anything.

Will someone please remind me where they are holding the food festival? Thank you!!

As I understand it, it will be at DCA only, in booths scattered throughout the park. Someone please correct me if I am wrong!

YAY! YAY! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We just returned from our October trip a couple weeks ago, and now have a new Christmas trip to look forward to! I can't believe we're actually going in just over a month! I saw a fantastic Frontier airlines deal.... as in $35 each way kinda deal. It would have been shameful not to take advantage of such a fantastic sale. Plus we already have our APs that we need to get use out of. So, 2 hours later, we went from no trip on the horizon to having our flights and hotel booked. Staying at the new Courtyard Theme Park hotel with the water park. '

Wasn't expecting my day to be filled with Disney planning, but here we are... so glad to be joining you all in planning our Christmas trip!

Thank you! Yes- definitely in DCA....just wondering where in that park

I bet that was awesome! Do they run the Astro Orbiter during fireworks? That would be cool too!

I've never noticed if the Astro Orbiter was going during the fireworks, but I have ridden the Matterhorn during and it was great! Probably the only time I didn't notice the damage being done to my body!

Has anyone here got any idea of what's happening for Paint the Night dining packages for the return during holiday season?
>.<

I came on here to ask the exact same thing! We are going to be there Thanksgiving Day and would love to share PtN with my parents, but I can't see how we'll manage without a package.

Can someone who has attended this please share a little more detail? Are there booths all over DCA or are they close to each other? Is each item individually priced or are there "plates" containing more than one item?

Edited to add: upon further reading, it looks like this is the first year for this event.

Is the food festival set to start Nov 10th also? I can't really tell by that article and there is no place to comment.

I am certainly hoping so!

I read it starts the 10th.

I am also unclear about when the food festival starts but I sure hope it's this holiday season.

i just got off the phone with CM regarding the Holiday Tour, this time, the CM said NO FP will be giving out at the end of the tour for the holiday tour, I told them that the last CM said there will be FP to Haunted Mansion, I was put in touched with a lead and she confirmed no FP, I expressed my disappointed and she said she will make sure to get the message to the tour department.. :-(

Seriously unhappy about this. I just heard the same thing from the CM too. When I booked the tour, they told me the three holiday rides were to be included which was my main reason for doing the tour! I feel like I have wasted my money at this point! Does anyone know who I can email at disney to express my frustration? Is there a guest complaint email address?

I'm not sure if this was already posted, but I didn't see it. I somehow missed when the Parks Blog posted all this info about the new World of Color show back in September. I'm excited to see it! Hopefully it will be better than the first Christmas version, which I've heard wasn't the greatest.
