    First off!

    to Intercot


    The party runs from 7 PM until Midnight and offers a special Mickey's Once upon a Christmas Parade which ran for the first time last year. I haven't seen it yet but have heard good things about it. There is also a special version of Holiday Wishes shown during the party. Along with these 2 special offering there are also 2 special stage shows Celebrate the Season at the castle stage and Mickey's Twas the Night Before Christmas in Tomorrowland both asre must sees. It also snows on main Street to give that extra holiday feeling. You can enjoy free hot chocolate and cookies at stations around the parks and on some December nights it can dip down in temperature. Overall it's a great time

    We went for the first time this past Christmas and it was well worth it. There is no crowd and seeing the castle lit up was great.

    It was a very cool event, however if you had to choose a party, I would suggest MNSSHP. It seems to truely transform the park more, and I feel it has better fireworks and parades.

    Everyone has their own opinions. I happen to think that the Christmas party is not worth the money. But you may go and LOVE it. So give it a try and see...

    I love the stage shows at mvmcp (CTS and Twas). Also, the fireworks and parade are really good.

    It is something we started a while back on our first trip to Disney. It has changed over the years and last year we enjoyed it but not as much as in the past. With that being said, it is truly a fun evening in which you can celebrate the holiday.

    If you do a search on this topic, you'll see that some people love it while others couldn't care less! The only way to really see if it's "worth it" is to go yourself! I believe everything at WDW is worth trying at least once!
    My boyfriend and I are going for the first time in December 2009 and we're really excited about it!

    hi and

    We loved it so much, one year we did it twice. Cookies and cocoa, bigger fireworks and a special parade. Plus we practically walked on every ride. very fun!

    This party is our least favorite of the three. Maybe because the park doesn't seem "transformed" for the party..its already decorated during the day. For the Halloween and Pirate parties, the park magically transforms before your eyes into those themes. Its awesome. I don't think we would do the Christmas party again. The parade was fun though, again, the least favorite of the three.

    Default Mvmcp

    Check Intercot's info page here and WDW's MVMCP page.

    I think answer from my viewpoint is, the party is swell but if you're looking for ways to lower the cost of your holiday season visit to WDW, MVMCP is something you can cut.

    If you're not 'hopping', MVMCP is a way to visit another park, particularly a part day park like AK or DHS and still enter the MK as early as 4pm on the same day.

    I was there the week before Christmas last year and did two nights. I thoughly enjoyed the experience. The Castle lights, shows, fireworks, parades, hot cocoa and cookies and hardly any lines. When is there any other time during the year that you can see Scrooge McDuck. I would say you would like it. To me it was worth every cent.

    Disney doesn't overbook the parties. I went on the 18th which was not crowded at all and the 20th which was a little crowded, but a lot better then busy times. I just loved getting on my favorite rides and only having to wait no more then 5 to 10 minutes. Some like HM and POTC, I got to ride in succession a few times. How many can say they did HM 12 times in less then 8 hours?

    Actually I was coming at this from a different viewpoint. If you are coming for a short holiday visit, MVMCP is a way to save money. For instance, if you have three days, by all means, don't buy the park hopper, buy two or three days and the Christmas Party tickets. If you buy two days and the party, you sleep in one day, or shop, or whatever. If you buy three days, you have one day to hop from another park to MK starting any time after 4pm. Yes, the party actually starts at 7pm, but MVMCP tickets get you in as early as 4pm. Go and enjoy...

    Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're NOT out to get you!
