My family always loved the DVC Merry Mixer parties held at Epcot. As it was replaced last year with an after hours event, has there been any announcement of any special DVC event this year in December?
 
Just the annual member meeting on Dec 13.
 
On a number of occasions, DVC has claimed they were not done announcing Moonlight Magic dates for 2018. Adding 1 or 2 in December would be a logical move. Or additional dates may never materialize. In my humble opinion, 14 nights throughout the year is pretty impressive.

Agree, and yet still hoping for something in December, too. :)
 

I'm guessing this would be very early Dec (if anything)....?

We are planning on Dec 16-21 but have a couple of nights at the beginning / end booked just until I can get flights secured.
 
I wish they would announce them waaaayyyyy in advance. In the past three years, we manage to plan a trip and hit one of them. I think that's about 8-10 trips in that time span. Our trips are already planned before hearing the date of a event.
 
What is that? Can you give more information please. I am a new member. Thanks

It is like a stock holders meeting if you have ever been to one of those.

The management is there giving annual reports, explaining the costs at each resorts why some went up and why some went up a lot. Many times there is a video previewing what is coming up, what was done in the prior year. There is usually a Q&A where you will hear some of the most bizarre questions/complaints people can come up with. I think there were light refreshments.
 
How/when would we know (quickly) if Dec dates were announced? Do they simply put it on the DVC member website - and we'd have to check daily? Is there any pattern to when they have announced for previous months that would indicate if/when December dates are announced?
 
I was wondering if anyone has heard any updates/rumors since the original post?
 
I'm still waiting to see what perks the DVD/DVC new management will end up keeping or getting rid of. Moonlight Magic was put in place by the last SVP.

If they are going to do them in December, I wish they would get to announcing it. I would like to redo my adr's while there is still a chance to get something decent.

I've already given up on ADRs. Snagged some good ones, but none of them are working out for me after a few changes to our plan. Sigh.

We have some good ADR's. I need to buy MVMCP tickets, schedule our Sleigh ride and book a tour. Since I don't know if they are going to do anything in December or what night if they are I am waiting to do my final schedule. I have times allotted for all of the above, but that can all change.
 
If anything materializes, hoping they might switch it up and do the first week in December.
 
What was date last year?
