Must do thanksgiving week?

[justme0729]

We will be staying at AKL the week of Thanksgiving. Are there any special events in the parks or resorts at this time? There isn’t a MVMCP for our dates and I haven’t seen much.

Most if not all of the resort decorations should be up by the end of the week. In the past the storytellers and Candlelight Processional plus the special holiday ending of Illuminations started on Black Friday at Epcot. Not sure if that changed last year. I believe there should be Jingle Bell Jungle Bam at DHS.

There was also a large variety of holiday food booths at each World Showcase country last year. Holiday projections on ToT at DHS after dark. Gingerbread house was up at GF, the huge Christmas tree at Wilderness Lodge went up that week, not sure about AKL. Boardwalk, BC/YC with big lobby displays.

We loved Minnie's Seasonal Dine at Hollywood & Vine. Also, hit all of the resorts to see the Christmas decorations, especially the lifesize gingerbread house at GF! Santa is at Disney Springs and Hollywood Studios. Santas around the world in Epcot. We also loved seeing characters in their winter/holiday outfits. (We'd only been in Summer before this past Thanksgiving).

There aren't any special events for Thanksgiving, but I found it to be a perfect time to enjoy the decorations without being hit over the head with them. We took a tour of the monorail resorts to see the trees and there was a photopass opp on Main St. before FoF parade. We spent Thanksgiving Day in Epcot and went to all of the Kidcot stations. It was really a great day.
