Entry time to CP for 9am ADR

What time will they let us into the gates at MK with a 9:05 Crystal palace ADR? Posted hurs are 9am opening for that day.

It can vary but generally they'll let you in 15-20 minutes before your ADR, so that's about 8:45 or 8:50 (basically during the MK welcome show). Personally, I'd try to score an earlier ADR (at like 8:15 or so), so that way you can still take advantage of the lower early morning crowds. Otherwise, I'd push it back to 10:15 or so, so you can take advantage of the crowds then eat. Just a suggestion. Good luck!

That's an unfortunate ADR time.

I agree. I recommend really thinking about whether breakfast at CP is worth giving up the best time to be in the park.

Thank you guys! This isn't our first and won't be our last so were not hardcore park touring this time. Unfortunately my daughter got sick on our first night of our last trip and our tradition had been to head to MK our first full day and eat at CP. We were all so disappointed to have to miss our adr at CP last time but her tummy just wasn't cooperating. So all that to say, I'd love an earlier reservation, but it just hasn't popped up yet and this adr trumps early touring.

Tough to beat meeting Pooh and his friends first thing! CP trumps for our family too!
