Help! Which Day For WOC?

[slotzkin]

We will be at DL staying at the DLH March 30-April 2. We will get there around noon on the 30th and leaving around the same time on the second. I know it is Spring Break and a weekend + a Monday so the crowds will be CRAZY! Since we are going to Southern California for a medical procedure our dates are unchangeable. Oh well we are just excited to be able to go! My question is this: we are planning on doing the WOC dining at Wine County Trattoria and wondering which night would be best/easiest to see WOC. We are eating dinner with friends offsite on March 31 so that night is out. Any other tips for enjoying the park during such a crowded time? We have always gone during off season times in the past.

Thank you so much for your feedback in advance!!!

WoC's viewing area, Paradise Park will be full every night, likely from now until next Winter. There is no night that it will be less crowded.

Since all of the night time show are planned to run each night, I would watch Remember Dreams Come True fireworks first, Fantasmic! Second and WoC third. This is because in that same order they are likely to be cancelled due to weather. This will give you the most chances to see Fireworks just in case, then secondly Fantasmic! just in case.

Thanks skiingfast! Any other tips for going at such a crowed time? We are staying on the concierge level at DLH.

Take advantage of Magic Mornings. Use your hotel key to enter along with your tickets so they know your are resort guests. Staying onsite you can go everytime it's avaliable, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Get to the gates at 6:45.

Take an afternoon nap, use the concierge for evening snacks before going back to the park at night.

Stay late when things start to slow down again.

Eat at off hours.

Use Fast Pass.

There should not be much difference between days with the Wine Country WOC dinner. The line procedures are constantly changing, but ignore the 8:00 time printed on your tickets. Try to arrive an hour before the show.
