Early morning magic?

[akayf]

I just realized that there will be early morning magic on the day we booked a pre-park opening ADR for CP. Is that going to have a huge impact on the crowds for that day? I picked this day as an MK day because there weren't AM EMH. I can switch my days around.

EMM is a paid event with only a couple hundred people. Zero impact to crowds.

The only thing that may change is PPO ADRs will not have early access to 7DMT, it is reserved for EMM until 9 am.

Great! That means I don't have to change our plans around! I really didn't want to start moving around our park days.

Just search Early Morning Magic on the official site and you'll be lead to the booking site. You can check the calendar for availability. Fingers crossed for you.

As a previous poster said, the EMM attendance is quite limited to just a few hundred people, and should not have any real noticeable effect on crowds.

I just noticed this as well for my first MK day - Early Morning Magic. I'm trying to get a BOG PPO Breakfast ADR to beat the rope drop crowds but if the EMM is limiting access to 7DMT, will we even be able to line up to be the first of the non-EMM on at 9 am?

From everything I've read, they still let you line up outside the restaurant which will give you a very small jump on RD crowds, but EMM people have access until 9.

Thanks @WiscMomof2. We're going the last two weeks of August and doing WDW and Universal. I had originally planned WDW during the first 10 days of the trip while finishing with Universal but the crowd calendar on TouringPlans is so favourable for WDW in that second week I may need to reverse that. We've done Universal during March break - at its worst - and it was manageable for us. This info helps with that decision making.
