Hi there, Katie! Welcome back to planDisney and Welcome Home! I'm so glad that you've stopped by with such a great question. I love chatting Disney with a fellow
Disney Vacation Club Member!
Eeeeek! In just days, Katie, you'll be arriving at The Most Magical Place on Earth, ready to begin your next magical adventure during the most magical time of year. How exciting! Holiday time is my absolute favorite time to visit Walt Disney World Resort, and Top of the World Lounge - A Villains Lair is my favorite place to grab a cocktail and take in the
best views of the fireworks. Combining the two sounds like a perfectly pixie-dusted evening, and I'm thrilled to answer your question today.
I think you will be happy to hear that
Top of the World Lounge - A Villains Lair is open daily from 6:00 p.m. to midnight, except on blockout holidays, such as New Year's Eve and July 4th. Since
Minnie's Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks spectacular is scheduled to take place at 10:00 p.m. during
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, you
will be able to catch the festive fireworks while enjoying cocktails and small plates. Yuletide YAY!
Since Top of the World Lounge opens right when your day at Magic Kingdom Park is ending, the timing simply couldn't be better! Since the lounge is first come, first served for those who do not have the Wicked Wind Down experience booked and your check-in will begin as early as 5:45 p.m., I suggest walking or taking the monorail over to Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort as close to 6:00 p.m. as possible. Just check in with the Cast Member at the Top of the World Lounge check-in desk and be sure to have your
digital DVC Membership Card in your digital wallet and your photo ID with you! Enjoy that Seven-Lair Cake, Katie!
I hope this was helpful, Katie, and I hope you have the most magical and memorable upcoming holiday vacation! Please stop by any time with any planning or DVC questions you may have along the way. You've got a friend in me!
Have a holly jolly time,
Mandy
