Went to the party on 12/17. First MVMCP for us. We had done a Halloween party, back in (I believe) 2016.

Overall, a good time. However, must echo what has been said countless times before - they sell waaaay too many tickets for these parties. So crowded. Felt no different that a regular operating day. 90+ minutes - basically 1/3 of the party - for character greets???!!! We certainly could not justify that. Did a few rides during party hours, mostly in Tomorrowland. Space and Speedway for the holiday additions and Tron since we had yet to ride it. Also did Jingle Cruise. None were walk-ons. Got a few of the cookies but unfortunately never went through Fantasyland to get the ones from CHH or by Philharmagic.

Always wanted to do a MVMCP, and now we've crossed it off the list. I never say never, but it's probably more likely that we will not do another. At least, not anytime soon. It just seems you have to completely prioritize one or two aspects and then blow off the rest. You want to do the unique character meets? Fine, but you will likely have to forego seeing the parade and fireworks, and stage show. And vice versa, you want to make sure you see the fireworks and parade (which probably should be shortened)? You can't be waiting in those character meets lines.
Huh; I’m sorry you had that experience. On the 15th it definitely didn’t feel that way to us, but we don’t prioritize characters during the party (we do cruises and character dining for that). We did tons of rides and I didn’t think walkways felt crowded. But it could also be different crowd priorities on different nights.
