I was going to MK on the evening of February 3rd, a Thursday. The offical website shows Spectro but no Wishes. I thought they had Wishes every night. Is it too early for them to show it on thier schedule?

When we were there last May, they had only a couple of days that we were actualy there that Wishes was shown. I don't know this for sure, but I would assume that they will not be showing it every night in February. Make sure you see it if you can. It is absolutely wonderful.
 
It may just be a glitch in the schedule or it may not be showing. Sometimes during the "value" season's the fireworks and special night attractions don't always run.
 
I've seen it before, and love it. I'm taking my 80yo father who's never seen it and also my aunt/uncle in their late 70's for their 1st trip to WDW. I'd love for them to be able to see it. We're only there 5 nights and with Cirque, Hoop Dee Doo and the other night time shows, this is the only night we have in MK.
 

nope, wishes do NOT show every night. we always go in December, and wishes and spectro are usually only 3 nights a week.
 
In January, Wishes will show every night. Does that mean that January is expected to be busier than December and February (excluding the xmas and presidents weeks)?

No... the reason Wishes is not shown every night in December is beacuse of the Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parties, on Party nights the park closes at 6pm for day guests. Wishes is presented for the Party on those nights, but not for the regular park operating hours. January is generally a much slower time.

No thoughts on why Wishes is not every night in February. Since Wishes started it has been presented everynight (weather permitting) except nights with hard ticket events (Ie: Night of Joy, Grad Night, MNSSHP, MVMCP) because the park closes early to day guests on those nights and it is generally not dark enough for fireworks. Maybe it is an error and we will see a change coming, but if not this will be the first time since Wishes began that it was not presented every night (excluding event nights).

I was just looking at the park hours for early Feb. (mainly Feb. 7) and thought it was odd that Spectro was scheduled, but no Wishes.

Hoping it's a mistake and Wishes will be added!!! :cool:

Thanks - I feel better now. I didn't think about the effect of MVMCP on the regular wishes schedule in Dec!
