I also saw new events for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas party this year was announced on wdwent.com which is a great website to look at more than enough info on weekly events at all of the WDW parks including times that are posted for a week at a time starting on Sunday's when the weekly WDW parks are setout in the parks. Think of it as looking at the WDW Parks Guide Map at home online except with links and more information. Steve Soares has been running the website for over a decade, and I always would go to his website, and plan my days using his virtual WDW MK, Epcot, DHS, AK, BW, and DTD Guide Maps with links and times, etc. Here is his link to the following 2013
MVMCP events.

****If you would like to see last year's 2012 MVMCP experience in photos and advice, take a look at this easyWDW.com link. At the very bottom of the very long page of photos is Josh's advice on how to attack MVMCP to get photos with characters and everything else. Remember this is from last year and not this year, but I always enjoy his photos and experiences. If he puts a similar one for 2013, I post it here.
