Quick Christmas Magic Band qestions

[wrlippert]

I am planning for a quick holiday trip to WDW the first week of December. I am a regular, but I have questions about two special events that I have not done since the inception of the Magic Band.

First, can I use my Magic Band (linked to my reservations and tickets on My Disney Experience) to enter the MK for MVMCP or do I need to print hard copies?

Second, I have booked the dining package for the Candlelight Processional. Will my guarenteed seating for the 6:45 performance be linked to my Magic Band?

As a side question, it mentions online that guest with the CP dining package get admission to preferred viewing for Illuminatons. I can not find any mention of the location for perferred viewing.

1. Yes.
2. You CAN, but you don't have to.
3. No.
4. They did NOT offer that last year at all. (It had been offered in previous years, but not in 2015.)
If they have reinstated that offer, we don't yet know where it would be.
The former "preferred" location is now being used for FP+ and/or the IllumiNations Dessert Party.
(We don't know if they will even continue the FP+ option for IllumiNations.)
But, there are other locations they can (and have) used for "preferred" IllumiNations viewing.

Thanks for the quick reply. I also have a dining question. I booked the breakfast option for the CP at Trattoria al Forno. Will there be a special menu for the CP package, or can one choose from the regular menu? I assume it will be an entree and non-alcoholic drink.

You will have a choice of what you order.
Regular menu items, but there may be a specific list of choices for the DP.
