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

[Cluelyss]

Would you use a fast pass to Conderella and Rapunzel?

No FPs are available during the party, and shouldn't need to FP them during the day (A&E has taken most of the attention off them!) - but won't be any princes available until the party aurally starts.

Right I got three fast passes for my 4-7 hour time frame:

Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road
Cinderella and Rapunzel
Jingle Cruise

Based on what you suggest I'll give up Cinderella for some other rides/attractions.

Btw does anyone know when Santa stays by Main Street, like when does he start to take stay in the Town Square Area.

There is a great thread on here that tells you which attractions will save you the most time using FP+ but I also recommend using FP if it's something that's really important to you and your family, regardless of the FP's "value." Most rides will have short wait times during the party, but I know you want to spend a good deal of your party time on party events. So I'd use your 3 pre-party picks on your family's top 3 rides/attractions so you don't waste valuable party time on them. And if that includes Rapunzel, then by all means, keep that FP! If not, then you can probably find a more "valuable" FP out there.

can someone map out on the MVMCP party map which characters meet where? Thanks!

Watch Kenny the Pirate's site after the first party, he will post a character locator map. If you are GOING to the first party, he may have a predicted map up now - he did that for MNSSHP based on prior years, then adjusted after the first party.

No we are not going to to first party... I will wait a little longer.

Anyone excited it's right around the corner!

 

[lilkimmyk]

I am! I can't wait to hear the reports after the first party on Friday!!

 

[dtr_angel]

So excited, cannot wait to hear reports from the first party soon!

I bought our party tickets this week. We're doing 2 parties. Sounds crazy, but we did 2 Halloween parties in October and I was so glad we did. Too much to fit into one night and who knows when we will be able to go back during the fall or winter again!

Does anyone know if Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet have their Christmas shirts/sweaters on at Crystal Palace? I have an ADR booked for before one of the parties. I don't want to see them at dinner and then still have to wait in line to see them in their Christmas garb. We met them at the Halloween party and we had such a great interaction with them. The line was long but worth the wait, especially since you get all 4 at once!

I am I am! I can't wait for all the stories to start rolling in so that I can make a finalized to-do list!

 

[Zhaan]

I'm very excited. I'm trying to figure out what time I should get online for Jack.

 

[Missyrose]

I'm very excited. I'm trying to figure out what time I should get online for Jack.

I would plan to be in line no later than 5:30, so you can be in the first wave of M&Gs when the party begins at 7.

They were not dressed up at dinner during MNSSHP, so would guess the same for MVMCP. Kenny the Pirate's character locator will confirm after the 1st party.

Going to the MVMCP on the 9th and so excited, even at 40. Missed out on Halloween party when I was at WDW 2 years ago due funds but have splashed out this time and cant wait. Hope we can get everything done and seen in just 5 hours. Please to hear the lines close at princess hall at 11.59 so we may leave them till last. If we can still stand up and keep awake.

So apparently Santa doesn't meet guests in the day until after Christmas...bummer so I have to plan a new strategy.

I'm still hoping for:

Mickey :mickeymo:
Minnie :minniemo:
Donald & Scrooge
Goofy
Santa
Dwarfs

To me it still seems doable just expect lines for both...

Plan to do one toward the very end of the party.

I would expect lines for Santa to be shortest at the end of the evening as 1. Many younger children will be gone for the night and 2. His location at the front of the park means many will see him as they enter. If it were me, I'd plan to do the dwarfs first as they will draw a crowd all night. Good luck!!
