Does this mean NO Grinchmas untill december 10 also. I thought the parade started Dec 10 but Grinchmas was the day after Thanksgiving. Some expert help please.

Unfortunately, it's true. Grinchmas has been shortened by 15 days, and will run December 10th - January 8th.

Oh yeah, maybe they can make Grinchmas as mediocre as Mardi Gras now.
Shoulda known there'd be more cutbacks this year since there were price increases.

Oh man..I hate hearing that we are only there till the 6th of December and figured we would see Grinchmas and some decorations at least.....

I was so hoping that it was a mistake that Dec. 10 was the Grinchmas starting date. We really want to go this year and wanted to go at Thanksgiving. I don't know if we will be able to make it anytime after Dec. 10. I know DH will not be going. There is absolutely no time off allowed for anyone during the Christmas season.

OH NO !! My sis and I are taking my little nephew the first weekend of Dec specifically to see this !!!

When I get back to the states I'll have to call and find out if the Grinch (movie, not cartoon) will be in the parks at all before the 10th - hopefully he'll at least be at the character breakfast - this is such disappointing news !!! Does this mean that the Macy's Parade won't run until the 10th also ? I may move over to WDW a day early if that's the case - we were going to USF to enjoy the holiday events ! thanks for the heads up

Ooops, nevermind! Just reread the op and it does include the festivities at USF also - Now I have to change my plans and add in the holiday events I wasn't going to have time for at WDW!
