Need help with my planning.

[Christine514]

I need help with my January planning, 25 to feb 6.

I would like to know your thoughts on the after hours events. I did it once in MK and once at HS. We loved MK mostly because of the second fireworks. We taught HS wasn’t worth it, Slinky was still a good 30-45 minutes all night long. We felt like we didn’t do much more than we do when we stack our LL. Im debating doing it again at MK on Feb 2. But it is much more expensive than it was before and with BTM and Buzz closed, is it still worth doing it?

We are already doing the seats and sweets fireworks party the week before for my friend’s bday. We did the Post party multiple times but we would like to try something new. Did you do it and if so did you enjoy it even with a somewhat blocked view? Thanks in advance.

My thoughts are it really depends. I tend to be a value visitor, meaning I don't want to just buy up everything because it is available.

Examples:
- If I wanted to go to MK for one day and didn't have an annual pass or was just doing a resort trip, I might just go to an after-hours event and make it my only park visit.

- If I were planning a once-in-a-lifetime trip, or perhaps only had a couple of days of park time and wanted to cram in as much as possible, I might buy it.

My advice to anyone is to put your money toward booking a longer trip and don't pay for all the upsell experience items.

Or use them strategically. For example, taking your grandparents to the fireworks, it might be great to have a reserved spot for them via a party and not have to fight the mobs. Or do it for a special occasion, like a birthday or anniversary.
