[vleeth]

Last year the first 2 weeks of december were changed to open at 8 at mk. Any idea if more changes are coming?

Am I blind or do I not know where to look for the times for Frozen holiday wish? When do they do the castle lighting?

They do it at 6:15 every night, then again at 7:30 on party nights (which of course only party goers can see) and then I think they also do it at 8:20 on non-party nights.

Click the above link and input your dates to see that day's scheduled events. A Frozen Holiday Wish is shown at different times depending on the day. For example: Dec 4th, a party night, it shows at 6:15 & 8:00. However, the following night, Dec 5th, it shows at 6:15 & 7:30. So please check the times guide for the actual day you wish to see the show.

Perfect - visual helps!! Yeah I hate to lose our BOG pre-opening ADR but we're going to think positive we'll get a lot more done now at 7am.

If you have kids, another plus is that the kids get double use out of their light-up toys...early morning and night! LOL!

On our MK day, Dec. 21st, there are two christmas parades. Noon and 3:30. Anyone know where each one will start? I think one starts in Frontierland and then the other will start on Main Street, right?

Sure enough, your link gives the times for the beginning of the month, but when I go to my dates, it doesn't list frozen holiday wish. yet all the parades are listed.

Lol Of course! I should've added that it looks like it's only scheduled 2 weeks out, so you'll have to check back if you have later dates. Sorry. I know it's a pain.

Isn't it at 6:15 and 7:30pm on non-party nights, and 6:15 and 8:20pm on MVMCP nights?

I'm not sure if they switch directions, but last year, the 3:30pm parade began in Frontierland.

Ah thank you! that explains it!

From what I was able to determine, Wishes stayed at its scheduled time even after the hours were expanded

Thank you, AngiTN.

I'm disappointed. I tried to grab a TSMM fastpass when I saw that DHS hours had been extended for a day I'll be there, but the FP system didn't yet have anything past 8:00. By the time I checked again, they were all gone. :-( I added this day inside of the 30 day window, so I had no chance to begin with, but I was hoping against hope.

I guess I need to start thinking about redoing my touring plan. I had us arriving at MK at 8 and it looks like the opening may stay at 9.

I'm in a similar boat... I "saved" my old plan and have an altered plan, too. It IS still possible that the opening will be 8am. Personally, I still am wondering if more changes are coming.

Does anyone else think that Dec 19th and/or Dec 20th MIGHT have evening EMH added?

Sure.

(Understand that I am answering the exact question you asked.)

Funny! And I just commented to vleeth that changes are still possible, so I guess I answered my own question.
Really, my question should be... Does anyone else think WDW WILL still make changes to their December schedule? How likely do "you" think that there will be evening EMH on Dec 19th and/0r 20th?
