Trying to prepare (at least as well as possible) for December... Planning on going to MK on a party day and I was wondering if they ever do an 8 open on party days? I was looking at Easywdw schedule from last December and it didn't seem like they did but I just figured I would check here. Thank you!
 
While the standard MK EMH day might change periodically, 60s generally on the same day of the week.
EMM might open the parks for a few rides for a few guests on some party dates, but they might not.
While past performance is not an indication of future results, the lack of 8 AM openings in the past is a good indication there won't be any in the future.
Look at the November calendar (or the MNSSHP September/October calendars) to see if there are any extended days scheduled.
Plan for the typical party day hours of 9-7 and consider anything else a bonus.

Good thinking- checked October for 2016 & 2015 and it looks like they haven't schedule 8 am openings on party days. Hopefully it stays like that for us because we are actually doing our two MK days on party days since we will have a baby this trip we're taking it easy.
 
Technically parties are typically held during lower crowd times of year and extra hours tend to be added for high anticipated crowds. That said, the Christmas party this year is going a few days later into December, so I would think there would be a risk of some of those dates switching to 8 AM.

We have done 8 AM until midnight on party days a number of times. But that was when EMH was on Thursdays (a regular party day).
 

Is Oct 31 at MK opening at 8am? I could swear I saw something posted about that:confused3

It WAS. Then with the update to October hours last week, they moved it to AK. Thankfully, I had booked 2 Crystal Palace breakfasts just in case they DID change them. Original plan (with 8AM opening) was some touring, then a 10:30 ADR. Now, with park hours back to 9AM, I have an 8:15. I'm still keeping both in case they change it again though.
