MVMCP during Thanksgiving week?

[jenniferyawn]

MY family is planning a trip next Thanksgiving week (2015). I see there is no MVMCP this year during that week. Is it always that way? I wonder why? We usually go in October but we really want to experience Disney Christmas so we switched. As far as I understand everything else Christmas will be up and running and decorated during Thanksgiving. Am I right about that? Thank you for your help!

I think I've heard it is because it is so busy that week, closing at 7 a few nights would be an even bigger deal.

The holiday crowds are too large that week to close MK at 7 for several days.

There is a party the Friday before Thanksgiving week - we actually extended our vacation a couple of days so we could take advantage of free dining and the Friday party for our trip!

Yes, you are correct that everything Christmas will be up over Thanksgiving. We went last Thanksgiving and stayed for the MVMCP the Monday after and left Tuesday. It was sold out so many people had the same idea, I guess. But it was the only time we could go for the Christmas stuff so it was worth it.

Unless they change it, the Christmas activites at Epcot do not start until the day after Thanksgiving.
