"Official" 2025 Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party

I know CM's sometimes are as accurate at Disney Bus Drivers, but here goes. My son called last night regarding a DVC issue and then asked about dates. The CM stated dates are loaded in the system and ticket sales start July 10. The last party is Tuesday, Dec 23. The first part I'd believe, the last date I'm not so sure. We'll wait and see.

Hopefully an announcement today or tomorrow then!
 
If the on sale date is true, then maybe tomorrow the dates would be announced that would be a week before they go on sale. Don't they normally let people with resorts stays buy them sooner?
Yes, the on sale date is usually about a week after the announcement of dates. When I indicated they went on sale last year on July 2, that was to say that I thought the announcement would come this week as we are already at the date they went on sale last year, meaning the announcement was a week earlier last year. We were resort guests so were able to purchase at the earliest date. I think non-resort guests can purchase several days to a week after that? So if we are lucky and they announce dates this week, I think resort guests could purchase next week.
 

How bad was the wait for Tron during the party? That's my son's #1 priority for our next trip, so I promised him we'd ride a few times.
Not bad at all! We rode it three times during the party, including one last go at around 11:50pm. I think the longest we waited was probably 25 minutes.

But the party goes by fast. 25 minutes is a larger percentage of your available time, as compared with a full park day.

Our priority was rides and the fireworks, no shows or characters or the parade.

Does that mean Disney won’t do the Christmas parade during normal hours until December 24th?

Also great move shutting down magic kingdom early during one of the most busy times of the year

I believe the last party will be the Thursday Dec 18 or Friday Dec 19 (one of those days will be Jollywood nights) and then the Christmas parade and fireworks will occur during normal hours until 12/29.

12/30 & 12/31 will have NYE fireworks twice a day.

If the info from the CM is correct that’s a great way for WDW to make more $$$. We really hoped last year there would be a party on 12/21.

I don't see the last party being that late
 
I wonder if it actually will go through the 23rd.
Last year it went to Dec. 20th and was one of the faster days to sell out. And they're always looking to add more dates and make more money.
 
🤞🏻 can’t wait!
I’ve been checking every morning!!!
This will be both my and my sister’s first Christmas parties.
 
Checking every morning!! Maybe tomorrow. I wish they would hurry so I can book my flights. I am waiting to see if is offered the day I am supposed to arrive, if so, I need an early flight!
 
The announcement could still come today! They usually announce the party dates and ticket booking windows a few days before tickets actually go on sale. I'd put money (not a lot of money though lol) on the announcement coming later today with tickets being released for onsite guests later this week and gen pub next week.
 
Been checking every morning for the last week for news! We are staying 3 nights using DVC points prior to our Merritime Cruise the week before Thanksgiving. Will I purchase tickets right from the dianey website or do I need to go through DVC for our party tickets? It's just hubby and me. We've been to several parties but never Jollywood Nights. Which party is your fav?
