Is this the first year World Showcase is still dressed out for Christmas during FoTA opening weekend?

I can’t speak specifically to FotA, but I have visited many years over MLK weekend and it was not unusual to see Christmas decor still up. By the end of MLK week, it was usually gone.

You know how every year when you take down the Christmas decorations and you always forget one? And then you find it 2 weeks later?? Maybe they missed it!!

Still looks nice and appropriate for the stand, though!!

I was watching a live stream yesterday and everything is still up.

I was thinking it is always taken down in the days before FoTA opening weekend,but could definitely be wrong.

The Christmas decorations do really look nice blended into FoTA.

Wow. Usually Christmas is fully taken down by the second Saturday in Jan. I know some years that has been as early Jan 8th when the last things are removed.

That's what I was thinking.

Nice little bonus surprise for FoTA opening weekend.

I think they leave a lot of it up for marathon weekend now, and then it takes the crews a few days to get it all. I saw where MK was just finished so maybe Epcot will be next.

WOW!

It looks like everything in Showcase was taken down overnight!

Except for the Christmas store in Germany of course.

That Mickey was a busy Mouse!

Amazing how they do that.

Will be interesting to see if we have a one day FoTA Christmas again next year.
