Hello Kim, and welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
I am thrilled to hear that you will be visiting the Walt Disney World Resort during the upcoming holiday season. You are going to enjoy one of the most wonderful celebrations held in the Magic Kingdom.
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is my favorite special event held in the Magic Kingdom for a few reasons. There is nothing that gets me in the holiday spirit quicker than a stroll down Main Street U.S.A. once it has been decorated for Christmas. There are a limited number of tickets sold for this special event which allows you to enjoy minimal wait times for your favorite attractions. When I have attended the party in the past, I have been able to make FastPass+ selections prior to the party starting. Keep in mind that policies are always subject to change but if you have your party tickets linked to your My Disney Experience account, you should be able to make a few
FastPass+ selections for the 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. time frames.
If you are a guest of a select Disney Resort Hotel, you can make your FastPass+ selections 60 days prior to your arrival date. If you are not staying on property, you can make your selections 30 days prior to your arrival. Keep in mind that you can begin to make selections as early as 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time. You are going to have a great time at the merriest celebration ever. Be sure that you do not miss the Holiday Wishes Fireworks Show or the Once Upon a Christmastime Parade. Don’t forget to check out the exclusive snacks and merchandise available only during the party. Good luck with your FastPass+ selections. If you have any more questions before you arrive, please come back and visit us again.
Happy Holidays,
Andrea
