Jollywood Nights Crowds Saturday Night vs Wednesday Night

[leggoons]

I will be attending Jollywood Nights as a solo the 2nd week of December. Are the crowds on Saturday nights better, the same, or worse than on Wednesday nights? I'm also planning on attending MVMCP during the same week and I'm trying to figure out my best night options so I'm not attending the parties on back to back nights.

I would think Saturday would have more people than Wednesday since the local people would be more likely to go on Saturday instead a weeknight.

Would Disney sell more tickets for Saturday than for Wednesday? Or is Saturday more likely to sell out?

Unlike the MK parties, Jollywood Nights sold out on only four nights last year. All four were Saturdays.

Thanks for the info. Of course the night I want to go is a Saturday!

Hence why they sell out
I'm going on a Saturday too - hey I'm helping!

We went on a Saturday night last year, and I think it was the only one to sell out maybe? No issues at all, great times.
Actually ours didn't sell out. I think only 2 parties did.

We went on a non sold out Wednesday last year. Most everything was easy to do, although it felt crowded at all the drink and food specialty venues.

I went solo last December - Epcot Monday, MVMCP Tuesday, Jollywood Wednesday. I planned to do the parties back to back as I wasn't doing anything special during those days except visiting resorts for the decorations. Worked well for me.

I've been debating this as well but in all likelihood I should probably just make it easy on ourselves and go on the Saturday of our trip since we'll be staying at BCV then, opposed to the Wednesday of our trip when we'll be staying at VGF.

FYI, the boats don’t run after the Jollywood Parties. We took a bus that was made available for after the party to the Swan last year. I think it was a combined bus for all of the Crescent Lake hotels.

Yea it is bus transportation only after Jollywood.

I cannot for the life of me remember what night I went last year. Jollywood felt far more like an afterhours event compared to MVMCP. Especially towards Galaxy's Edge and Andy's Backyard. Character lines were easy. Ride lines were near non-existent. Lots and lots of stuff going on.

One thing I would recommend, is plan on being in the parks as early as they allow if you want to hit the Frozen sing-a-long holiday edition. Cause it ends early.

Great to know, thanks! In that case I'll likely just take a late-night stroll back.

The path isn’t very well lighted, but definitely doable if you’re not too tired from the party.

That's what I did last year, you won't be the only one walking! Although BCV is a bit farther walk than the Swan where I was staying that night.
