Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party is a Walt Disney World Special Event premiering on select nights from November 9th through December 21st. The party begins at 7:00 pm on these nights when the regular pass holders depart the park and those with special wristbands remain for the rest of the evening.
Main street and all the attractions are lit up with Christmas lighting and decorations while all your favorite characters walk the streets and mingle with the crowd. The party features the famous Disney lighted Christmas parade and, as always, Santa Claus makes his annual appearance. The crowd is huge for this event and the atmosphere is awesome, especially for the kids.
Tickets for this event are not included in regular park admission. You can purchase them at:
www.disneyworld.disney.go.com
Prices range from $53.95/Child 3-9 to $58.95/Adult in November and increase periodically through December depending what night you prefer. Florida resident rates are slightly lower.
Enjoy the fireworks, complimentary cookies and hot chocolate (although it's a little warm some nights) and then see all your favorite attractions as they stay open til midnight.
It's a little grainy because I was walking when I took it but you can see the Disney snow in the lights above Main Street. This may not excite you if you're from Canada but for those of us from the Sunshine State it's pretty exciting. Merry Christmas!
