Hi, Sarah! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! How exciting to be planning a festive Walt Disney World Resort vacation!
Although I cannot predict when
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party dates will be released, I can let you know that this yEAR, they were released in the Spring, giving Guests plenty of time to plan and make Advanced Dining Reservations. I always suggest to eat Quick Service meals only during special events in order to have time to fully benefit from all of the extra seasonal offerings such as parades, Disney Character meet & greets, and, of course- the fireworks presentation!
I am also very happy that you are thinking about a
Candlelight Dining Package! Having experienced this amazing presentation for the first time last year, I was left with goosebumps and a few happy tears! When you book it as a dining package, you have guaranteed seating at the annual Candlelight Processional, which means no need to wait for hours in line! One of my bucket list items is to attend on a night when Neil Patrick Harris is narrator! You can absolutely make your
Advanced Dining Reservations 180 days in advance for this package offer either online or
by phone.
I hope this answers your questions! Happy planning and please visit us again soon!
Jen
