Disneyland in January?

[willturner]

Firstly, a huge thank-you to everyone who posts here. I am a first-timer going to Disneyland and there is a TON of valuable info on this board .

My family has a trip to DL planned for January 21-27. My first question would be, does Fantasmic usually show on weekends even during low season? The DL website only has it showing through the first week of January. I talked to someone in vacation planning and they said it "should" be showing when we are there? Am I just being paranoid that we might miss it ?

I also realize that Jan 21 (MLK day) will be the last day that IASW will be open for a long time. This will be our first day at DL and I am unsure as to what the lines might be like? I think this day will be BUSY all around but do you think my family has any hope of getting on IASW in the evening? (we probably won't even hit the park until about 5:00?).

Lastly, we have been lucky enough (?) to get senior rates on two rooms at the DLH which absolutely blow the water off of any price we can get on a package deal. The biggest downfall is that my dd4 would be thrilled to attend the Mickey's Morning Toontown Madness. Has anyone lately had the luck of scooping a couple of tickets to this at the front desk? Are these tickets transferable? I am (almost) desperate enough to ask guests checking out of the hotel if they have tickets they haven't used .

I really have about a million questions but these are the most pressing, lol. I can't even believe that my Disney dream is about to come true!!!

TIA to those that can help me!

Go check out this thread for the MTTMM vouchers.

Since you have a longer vacation, if I were in your shoes, I'd just get to the park and go to IASW. But I really love the ride...others aren't quite as odd as I am. But since you have so many other days to do other things, I'd just start off with IASW.

I do not know about Fantasmic, sorry!

Why not give it a try? even big looking queues at IASW can move quite fast. If it's too crowded, you really haven't lost anything by trying.

Enjoy your trip, and you can always check out ebay for tickets.
