**Official Frozen Sing-Along, Oaken's, Holiday Premium Package Tips, updated 1/5/15

[LovinNKOTB4ever]

I am taking my daughter at the end of August, sadly I missed the opportunity to purchase the package, darn it! The day we are planning to go has morning extra magic hours and we are not staying on property, can someone who has been tell me how fast the singalong tickets go? Just wondering if I should try to rearrange the trip, I know no one can guarantee me tickets just wondering what others have experienced.
Thank you.

We did the frozen premium package on saturday. At about 10:30am we could only select sing a long time of 2:30 and then I want to say something around 5 and something around 6. we did 2:30pm. We enjoyed the parade but it was so hot my 5 year old didn't want to stay for the welcome show. it worked out alright because we were able to beat a good bit of the crowds to oakens. we had to wait about 10 minutes or so to play in the snow but didn't ice skate. we did see the ice skating demonstration though and it was nice to watch.

In the shop there were no stuffed svens and I don't think there were any elsa dresses either. They had a lot of Anna toddler dolls but not kristoff or elsa. they had the anna and elsa barbie type dolls and I believe both singing dolls (at least elsa) They also had a lot of the elsa/anna flip doll and a lot of anna dresses as well as tshirts, magic bands, little plastic play sets, snacks, books etc. We brought Sven from home and must have been stopped a dozen times by people asking if we'd bought him at disney world.

the sing along was really great. sitting right up front for that was probably the best part of the package for us. we ate a late lunch/early dinner and then went back to the hotel for swimming/nap and got back for fireworks a little after 8pm. There were a lot of people by themselves at tables but also a lot of people who were sharing. I'm pretty certain almost everyone had a table to put their snacks/drinks on. The show was nice and the fireworks were wonderful. It was a little late for my 5 year old but we still had a nice time.

I hope they put the sing along somewhere permanent if they can't keep it where it is.

Thanks for the great review!
I'm wondering what time you had to check in to be in the parade? DGrD10 would love to be chosen, but I wondered if I would have to say no because of the Premium Package. DNeph(now 16) was chosen many years ago to be in the SWW parade he LOVED the experience - something he will never forget, walking in a Disney parade.

Hi - DD8 was asked to be in the parade right at 8:00. We were stopped by a cast member upon entering the park. The return time for the children chosen to participate in the parade was between 10:30-10:45 near guest relations in the front of the park (actually right in front of First Aid). We did purchase the premium package so DH did not view the parade from the viewing area. There was a roped off area specifically for family members of the children in the parade. It was directly across from the premium package area. Prior to us going to the parade check in area, we did go to the premium viewing area for bottles of water.

At the dessert party!

AH! I finally get it. No day drinking with the premium package but plenty available at the dessert party.

Usually I'm not this dumb. Maybe I've been drinking too much.

Welcome to all the new posters and lurkers.

Thanks to all those who shared their experiences and helped answer questions.

I saw a friend's pictures from today's parade. Looks like Kristoff is now holding an instrument while on his float.

 

[tinkerhon]

Those are good too. I need to stick with WW, lol.



Nice.

I was debating buying it online, but decided not. I might wear it at Disney. But I know I won't wear it outside of Disney. My R2-D2 from Her Universe I wear often both at Disney and outside of Disney.

We also, decided not to go with MNSSHP on the 1st because we were able to get that 2nd package. Unless we change our minds. We still have the room booked for Labor Day weekend, but I'm thinking we'll focus on Frozen and our farewells if it isn't extended.

Just an update--- received the necklaces in the mail today--- they are absolutely gorgeous!! The boxes alone were worth the $12 !!!

They have the one on the pic (cameo style) as well as just the olaf "body" charm with the necklace

I like the cameo one. That's the one I missed online when I was looking
