MNSSHP special event dining

[wendlle]

We have our MNSSHP tickets for 9/10 booked.
I see that they haven't got any special Halloween fireworks dessert parties or parade packages yet.
When would these open up?
Just wondering when they opened them up for the Christmas Parties and if I should be looking at a specific time or just keep checking every day?
I'm really hoping for a parade dining package. The Fireworks I'm ok with seeing from anywhere but the parade is very important to us and last time with our infant it was a nightmare. This time we have a toddler and an infant so I want to get special seating instead of being pushed and crushed by people this time.

I’m not sure what they’ll do this year about that. Last year the dessert party wasn’t supposed to include the parade viewing but they forgot to change the wording at the beginning so some people got it and others didn’t (depending on when they booked). Your best bet is to just keep checking every day. I doubt it’ll be something that sells out right away though

thanks, yes i had heard about the mistake last year.
I'm hoping hey decide to "cash in" and offer both.
It's really hard to get a good spot for the parade with the little ones and not be crushed, we've learned the hard way.

We booked the terrace viewing and it was terrible. We got stuck under the overhang so our view of the fireworks wasn’t great. I’m not sure why that party costs more than the plaza viewing. The only reason I kept it at all was for the parade. If they did it separately I would pay for the parade viewing again but I wouldn’t do fireworks viewing for mnsshp

We booked the terrace dessert party for Halloween last year on the first day it was available. It was around Memorial Day or right after when it became available (but who knows with what disney is doing this year so far!). We were lucky and got both the fireworks and parade due to the website mixup. The parade viewing was worth it. Fireworks is just ok.

I know that the MVMCP fireworks dessert parties opened on the same day as well last year. But the Tony's with the parade viewing wasn't added until much later on. I think after they realized they could do the parade viewing at Halloween. We are planning on doing a Christmas party this year and are watching for a parade/fireworks viewing party if possible too. We'd love that! But if we have to choose, it will be parade viewing.

Thank you for this info. I will keep checking every day or two but this gives me a timeframe to really step up my search.

Times are now available for the Fireworks Dessert Party on Halloween Nights BUT there is nothing about parade viewing. I'm starting to think that this isn't going to be offered which is a huge bummer. I'm so scared my kids will get crushed like last time. The Halloween crowds can be insane especially when viewing the parade.
