will we make it in time for the 2pm parade?

We will be at MK on Dec 8th. We originally weren't going to see the parade until I read how cool this one is........so now I have a dilemma. We have BOG lunch ressies for 1:10pm. I have been to BOG before but my daughter and son's girlfriend haven't so I don't want to rush them and want them to see the 3 rooms..Have been looking for earlier time for lunch but so far have been unsuccessful.

How much earlier than our 1:10pm ressies can we show up? Does the parade start on main st? Any strategies/advice?

Thanks so much.

Generally you can only check in 5-10 minutes beforehand. Any earlier and they will tell you to come back.

Parade starts at Splash Mountain and takes 25ish minutes for the first unit to reach the end of Main Street/Town Square

I don't know that I would plan on being able to see the parade with that reservation time. If you check closer to your date, earlier timeslots are more likely to appear

I wouldn’t count on it.

Use the free Touring Plans reservation finder if you aren’t already and there is a chance you could snag an earlier ADR. It works!

I highly doubt you can make it in time. Maybe check closer to time and see if you can get a 12:00 pm lunch reservation.

Man...I think it would be tough to make the parade with that ADR. As others have suggested...I would see if you can change the time if you really want to see the parade.
