Sneak Peek Of MVMCP Map

[Cynthia1215]

The 6:15 Castle Lighting will be more crowded because the regular day guests are in the park until 7:00.

Celebrate the Season Castle stage show isn't crowded for the very last showing of the night.

Celebrate the Magic is the Castle projection show where images are projected onto the Castle right before the fireworks begin.

Ok, so if I am seeing the second parade, is the best option to see the 7:30 CtS and then the 8pm lighting, watching directly in front of the castle where it hopefully won't be too crowded since most people will be lined around the parade route? Or maybe I should just ask what your ideal schedule would be to fit in the shows?

On another thread, a parade control CM is saying there are some logistics problems with an 8:00 Castle Lighting. So, it may be safer to find a spot early for the 6:15 show and have that be in your plans. Are you trying to fit in Totally Tomorrowland, also? As well as CtM and Fireworks?

Not the tomorrowland show and not the dance parties. Yes to CtM and the fireworks. Otherwise, our focus is on the rides and not charaters. I imagine we will be popping over to the castle/hub/mainstreet area for a show then back to a land for rides.

If you do the 6:15 Castle Lighting then that frees you up until around 9:00 for CtM > Fireworks. The walkway to Tomorrowland right off of the Hub has some good views. Then, CtS > 2nd parade from the Hub area or move to Main Street Town Square area for the parade. You can also catch the last CtS if the Hub area isn't where you want to be for the 2nd parade.

I really like the feeling of having almost 3 hours free as all of my plans were feeling very choppy. Thank you it sounds great!

Itinkso - can you provide more info on the possible logistics problem with the 8PM castle show? Or direct me to the thread that talks about it? I'm going next week, and need as much info as I can get given the construction and other changes. TIA!

The Hub will be filled for the Castle Lighting at 8:00 and the CMs immediately have to clear the parade route and put up ropes. 11290, the DISer/CM is checking on everything and will post info in the Holiday Wish thread: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3348364

Ok great. I will go back and read that thread more carefully, lol. Thanks again!

Anyone notice the 20% off "coupon" on the bottom of the map? I wonder if this is good anywhere, anytime (before the expiration date)? If that is the case, I will grab like 20 of these and use them all trip!

That's what I was excited about! Is it on everything and everywhere? I'm assuming it's only on the party night...

It's only for Joffrey's Coffee and is good at all their locations. They are located in all four parks. The coupon expires on January 15, 2015.

Kenny the Pirate hasn't updated his character locating guide map for 2014 but the one from last year will give you a general idea of where to find most of this year's characters:

The link posted took me to the 2013 map - it says 2014 map "coming soon". Perhaps only the one of Facebook has been updated?
