MVMCP Questions

[DeeDeeDis]

Hi,

This will be our first year visiting in this season and from everything i've read we are going to have a GREAT time and can't wait to get there, have a few questions

1. If we have two addresses (ours & Moms) will we get two copies of the photo? and how do you address this with cm, we do have seperate receipts from when we purchased the tickets.

2. We have ps at the tavern for 6:20 pm that night, if we are already in the park will we miss the photo session?, Do they take the picture as you enter?, is there normally a hugh line for this

3. Best area, in your opinion, for watching the parade

greatly appreciate all your wisdom

p.s. I'm still really confused about all the christmas tree talk



All star - 39 days away, VWL - 41 days away

1. That should not be a problem.

2. The photo stations are located throughout the park and are open all evening. I know one is in Hall of Presidents, you can hit that one right after LTT. I think the Tomorrowland location is the only one open before 7:00.

3. I like Main Street because the snow is falling. Depending on the night you go, you shouldn't have a problem finding a spot for the second parade, get there 30 min before.

4. Not sure what you mean by Christmas Tree. The MK tree is in town square, they have a tree lighting at 5:30. You can get in with just your MVMCP after 4:00. If your LTT is 6:20, you could see the lighting ceremony and then head back.

Thanks Debbie

I didn't know there was a tree lighting ceremony, that should be fun, also didn't know we could get in a 4pm. which is great now we can go to the park at 4pm do the rides and then spend the night watching all the christmas activities

okay they have

two parades? thought there was only one, do you know what time each parade starts?

tree lighting ceremony

snow on main street

free pictures

hot chocolate and cookies (free?)

am i missing anything?

Wow Its silly but i feel like a little kid again waiting for santa, i'm so excited about this trip.

DeeDeeDis - there is a thread entitled "Mickey's Very Mery Christmas Party Central" pinned to the top of the theme park discussion board. I believe it contains schedule info from last year, which should be fairly accurate this year, and answer to many questions that others have asked. You may be able to get all the info you need from this thread.

The last time we did MVMCP was in 02. That year we watched the parade from Frontierland. There were good spots right up until it started. The time before that (1998), we had to stake out a spot on Main Street about an hour ahead. Main Street is more magical, but we enjoyed things practically until the parade started.

There is usually an early parade, and then the fireworks and then a later parade. I think the late parade is around 11pm, so most of the little kids have fallen asleep and left. My kids could never make it that long!

I can't wait until we leave!

In answer to your photo question, just tell the cm before hand that it is actually 2 parties in the photo and ask to have 1 sent to each address. I have done this for the past 3 years, they take one photo but send one to each address we gave them, since we were all adults and we each had tickets..............never had a problem.

Last year I believe the parades ran at 8:00 and 10:50. Fireworks at 9:15.
