How much different is Illuminations during the Holiday season. I love the original and I still want it to be the pretty much the same during November but will it be different?

The show is identical to the rest of the year, EXCEPT...
They ADD a special Holiday Finale onto the end of the show.
It contains as many fireworks in that 4-5 minutes as have been already fired during the entire regular show, just seen.

The music and everything is the same too?

The show is identical to the rest of the year.*With the addition* of the "holiday tag" (finale') (an extra five minutes or so, with a Walter Kronkite narration). It's *amazing* if you've never seen it. :thumbsup:

When do they have this extra 5 minutes? What time of year? Is it all of December? We've never been in December before - going for the 1st time this year. We usually go in November. I don't think we've ever seen this...

I don't think we've ever seen this...Christmas/New Year's week for sure...not sure right off-hand if they run the holiday show whenever Illuminations is after the Candlelight Processional (the 9:30 show).

We went the days following Thanksgiving a couple of years ago and they played the special finale. It was a special treat.

Here is a *very good* video of "Holiday Illuminations":

This even has the "pre-show" music and the announcements ;) :thumbsup: :mickey:

The Holiday addition is incredible. I didn't think they could top the finale that usually ends Illuminations, but the Christmas tag is pretty incredible. It's one of the things that pulls my back to WDW during a season I'd rather avoid.
