Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party - Lets Talk Characters!

[Cirlonde]

About to head out for the party tonight...can anyone tell me if Belle meets anywhere during the party? I'm trying to get her autograph! Don't care what outfit she's in.
Thanks!

Belle doesn't have a M&G at the Party. She can be found in ETWB but doesn't sign autographs. Her M&G is in Epcot.

Did anyone see Duffy Bear at the Christmas party? We're going next Thur. and we heard he would be there. Would love to know where to find him.

Duffy is at Epcot. I think he was in the gateway leading from future world to the countries.

We use Memory Maker every trip. Memory Maker is good from 30 calendar days from when the first picture is first uploaded, or linked, to it.

If you purchase it ahead or time for only $149.00, it will not "activate" until 3 days after the purchase date and your "30 day" clock starts immediately once the 3 day waiting period ends, regardless of when the first picture is taken. So, any pictures taken during that first 3 days time would not be included. (You could always get a freebie card and then after 3 days link it to your MM on MDE).

If you purchase MM at the park, for $199.00, you can use it immediately and your 30 day clock starts ticking from there.

One item of note: Each time that we have purchased MM (usually around the holidays timeframe) Disney has offered a "free" 30 day extension for viewing your pictures online on MDE. Normally, the pictures last for 45 days in your account after they are taken.

I purchased MM when I set up this trip in April so I have yet to activate it I hope. We are going on 11/28; should I activate it before we get there?

I believe it activates when you download your first photo from the ones that show up in your account.

It "activates" once you take your first picture I believe? We bought ours far in advance of our trip as well, and did nothing before we got there...just started scanning our band once we arrived, and the pictures showed up in our account a few hours later!

Does anyone have a good summary of the big events for the night? I know the rides are open & there are character meet & greets but what should I not miss?

parade?
castle lighting?
fireworks?

 

[lulucornbread]

Can you prebook fast passes online if you have a MVMC ticket?

 

[JayT]

Parade is delayed due to 'technical difficulties'. Never heard that before. Maybe they got the blue Mickey. lol

 

[Laura's Dad]

Can you prebook fast passes online if you have a MVMC ticket?

Yes. 3 before the 7 pm. After 7 there are no FPs

 

[Itinkso]

Can you prebook fast passes online if you have a MVMC ticket?

Yes. Look for rides that have a window of 3:15-4:15 for your first FP.

It activates when you actually download the first picture. You can look at the pictures on the Photopass website but once you download one the clock starts ticking.

For those of you who went to (or are at) the party tonigh: Can you tell me what time Jack Skellington came out to start his meet/greet? We are going next Friday and want to know how to line up for Jack and/or the Seven Dwarfs.

We were just there last month, and my photos are all showing expiration dates 45 days after they were taken, not 45 days from when I downloaded.

This was my first Christmas party tonight and I don't think I will I spend the money to do it again. There were so many people, I was really shocked. I would hate to see what a sold out party is!

What did you get done? Who did you go with and how many characters did you see???

I went with my husband , 4 kids (7,8, 11, & 12), and I got the 7 dwarfs, Aladdin & Abu, fireworks, parade and 4 rides (jingle cruise, speedway, teacups and pirates). It was crowded and hard to do much. I think if you go, don't try to get everything done because you won't. I think I went in with too high of expectations.
