We were there Friday night 9/27 and it was absolutely miserable. We've done these parties in the past and never, and I mean NEVER was it this crowded. We had heard tickets were limited to 30,000, but with the selling of the passes for residents to go to every party (even allowing access to sold out parties) it made this really unpleasant. We will not be repeating any of these events in the future if Disney wants to continue to sell those passes. To say something is " a limited ticket event" but then allow masses of extra people in when it is sold out makes it no longer "limited". We've been to MK during all different times of year and this party was more crowded than even some regular busy days at MK. They were making announcements asking for volunteers with the passes to leave (yeah right) due to it being so crowded. It wasn't even so much the wait times as just trying to make your way across the park, enjoy the parade or be in the hub. People were frustrated, nasty, and it was hot so that didn't help the overall enjoyment. We really felt that the difference was likely all the people that had purchased the passes and were granted admission even with the party being sold out. Even the cast members were commenting on this being an issue and seemed frustrated. Long, long, long, lines at the treat stations. HM had a 50 min wait at 9pm which was right before the parade so the masses sitting and waiting for the parade and watching the shows in the hub didn't even help ease the lines. Needless to say it was very disappointing for us and we ended up just leaving at about 10pm, and people were
still arriving for the party. Not that it will do any good, but I plan to write Disney and let them know that calling this event a "limited ticket event" is false advertising. Going forward we will use our Extra Magic Hours or splurge for one of the actual limited ticket events rather than do any of the seasonal parties. If anyone is planning on doing the
MVMCP this year I would wait to see if they announce a similar multi ticket pass again before spending money on the tickets.
