MVMCP not offered during Christmas week???

[loinsley]

Just wondering why the Magic Kingdom Christmas party is not offered during Christmas week? Does anyone know why not?? We've been to the world a few times but never during Christmas week.....looking forward to it!!

Because it is so busy they don't want to close the park early for a ticketed event.

The parks and resorts are way too crowded to shut them down that early.
In contrast to the parks closing early for a hard ticket party, they stay open later each night.

They move the Christmas parade to the daytime slot.

Am I remembering correctly that some of the themed shows are done during the week as well?

You'll find the Christmas Parade at 12:00 and 3:30 from December 20th - 31st. Celebrate the Season Castle stage show replaces Dream Along with Mickey during those dates and a Totally Tomorrowland Christmas stage show will also take place in Tomorrowland.

It basically turns into a Christmas Party every day. The Holiday Wishes will run nightly and the Once Upon Christmas Parade twice a day.

There'd be tons of PO'd guests if MK closed early during such a busy time and people were asked to pay extra to stay in the park after dark. Disney wouldn't dare try this. Yet.

Thanks for your thoughts! Hoping that's what happens this year!!

It's confirmed for this year and traditionally, the Christmas shows take over regular "programming" for the Christmas season. The Christmas parade and Castle Lighting show are confirmed through the 31st.

I saw the Christmas parade on the January calendar through the 3rd - do you think that's correct? FP says FoF parade.

FoF is returning on the 1st this year. It hasn't yet been updated on some calendars. The FP system is correct.

A lot of the stuff offered at the party is offered during Christmas week. I would be happy to not have to pay extra for the parade, shows and fireworks.
