When does Wilderness Lodge's tree go up???

Ok, we are booked Nov 14-18, and I saw that last year the tree wasn't up until the 19th Then I saw the two years before that it was up on the 13th. Any experiences of when you've seen it go up??? It was one of the main reasons we chose there

Are you sure it was up on the 19th last year? I actually though it was even later than that. I was there beginning December 1st, and though I remembered that it had only been up for a week or so.

Hmmmm. Idk lol. I know it's up by thanksgiving....a Disney chat person claims the 8-10th, so Idk. I really want to see it!

You should look at the WL thread. I'll bet the date it went up last year is there.

Every year the Deluxes are put into a lottery to decide the order of the tree/decorations to go up. The order for this year has not been decided yet. But all of them are up by the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend.

We may have to resort hop on the monorail . I'll hope for a good lottery pick! Any idea when the lottery happens?

IIRC tree went up on the 24th

Went to bed the night before and when we woke up it was there

There is a post somewhere on this site with a link to a video of it going up.

Quite a task
